Amiloidosis Cardiaca por Cadenas Ligeras. Reporte de caso y aporte de la imagen multimodalidad en el diagnóstico.

“…La resonancia magnética cardíaca es muy relevante en el diagnóstico no invasivo. La FEVI conservada, el realce tardío con gadolinio con patrón no isquémico, una pobre anulación del pool miocárdico, así como el aumento del valor del T1 nativo (mapping) y del volumen extracelular apoyan el diagnóstico (4) . En comparación con la amiloidosis tipo TTR, la amiloidosis AL tiene un aumento menos importante del VEC y del T1 nativo (5) , un mayor valor del T2 (6) y menos engrosamiento parietal del VI.…”

Is the Impact Breast Implants with RFID Have on MRI Quality Investigated Thoroughly Enough?

“…Let us not forget the large patient group that needs MRI for planning of pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation and for prognostic purposes. 13–21 As the MR examination is performed on a pulsating organ and includes cine sequences, the toolbox for artifact reduction is small. Cardiac MRI has increased by 75.5% over a period of 6 years in the United States, a trend expected to rise further.…”
