Nonspecific symptoms and other diagnostic challenges lead to underdiagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA). Artificial intelligence (AI) could help address these challenges, but a summary of the performance of these tools is lacking. This narrative revi...
BACKGROUND: While echocardiography is pivotal for detecting left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), it struggles with etiology differentiation. To enhance LVH assessment, we aimed to develop an artificial intelligence algorithm using echocardiography-bas...
BACKGROUND: Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an underdiagnosed, progressive and lethal disease. Machine learning applied to common measurements derived from routine echocardiogram studies can inform suspicion of CA.
BACKGROUND: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is an important diagnostic tool for diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA). However, discrimination of CA from other etiologies of myocardial disease can be challenging.
Current approaches for cardiac amyloidosis (CA) identification are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and present challenges in sensitivity and accuracy, leading to limited treatment efficacy and poor prognosis for patients. In this retrospective study...

BACKGROUND: The acquisition of contrast-enhanced T1 maps to calculate extracellular volume (ECV) requires contrast agent administration and is time consuming. This study investigates generative adversarial networks for contrast-free, virtual extracel...
Cardiac Amyloidosis (CA) occurs when misfolded proteins accumulate in the heart muscle, leading to restrictive cardiomyopathy and possibly escalating to heart failure, impaired conduction system function, and sudden cardiac arrest. It is a significan...
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is often delayed due to variability in clinical presentation. The electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most common and widely available tools for assessing cardiovascular diseases. Artificial intelli...
Systemic amyloidosis involves the deposition of misfolded proteins in organs/tissues, leading to progressive organ dysfunction and failure. Congo red is the gold-standard chemical stain for visualizing amyloid deposits in tissue, showing birefringenc...
