YAMAN, Bettina; EMBON, Mario; COHEN ARAZI, Hernán  and  PERRONE, Sergio V.. Cardiac amyloidosis: Findings in cardiovascular magnetic resonance. Insuf. card. [online]. 2009, vol.4, n.4, pp.190-193. ISSN 1852-3862.

We present images of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) of a 38 years old patient carrying a cardiac amyloidosis with clinic of congestive heart failure. CMR should be considered before the suspected diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis and may be useful to monitor treatment response.

Keywords : Cardiac amyloidosis; Cardiovascular magnetic resonance; Congestive heart failure; Restrictive cardiomyopathy.
