CMR T1 Mapping for Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis
Sponsor: University of Leipzig
Summary
The study aims to test the diagnostic accuracy of T1 mapping for the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis prospectively. The hypothesis is that T1 mapping in older patients with symptomatic heart failure, increased LV wall thickness and elevated cardiac biomarkers is non-inferior to the reference method to diagnose cardiac amyloidosis (CA). As secondary measure, a web-based ATTR probability estimator for the diagnosis of CA will be evaluated.
