Sažetak
Amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease characterized by extracellular deposition of insoluble fibrillary protein.Cardiac involvement can lead to restrictive cardiomyopathy (CMP) and heart failure. 99mTc- Pyrophosphate (99mTc-PPY) has high affinity for TTR amyloid, allowing differential diagnosis with AL and other nonamyloidotic CMP with hypertrophic phenotype, in which 99mTc-Pyrophosphate (PYP) is low or absent
