Cardiac amyloidosis is a serious and progressive infiltrative disease that caused by the deposition of amyloid fibrils at cardiac level. It can be due to rare genetic variants in hereditary forms or as consequence acquired conditions. Thanks advances imaging techniques possibility achieving non-invasive diagnosis, we now know more frequent than traditionally considered. In this position paper Working Group on Myocardial Pericardial Disease proposes an invasive definition amyloidosis, addresses clinical scenarios situations suspect condition diagnostic algorithm aid diagnosis. Furthermore, also review how monitor treat attempt bridge gap between latest field practice.
