Abstract
Often differential diagnosis between AL and ATTR amyloidosis is difficult. Concerning ATTR, sensitive diagnostic tool, as diphosphonate scintigraphy, was validated, instead of no imaging approach is as accurate in AL. Cardiac ultrasound and circulating biomarkers may raise the clinical suspicion but biopsy remains the only option for diagnosis. We aimed to explore the sensitivity of 18F-Florbetaben PET respect to blood tests or periumbilical fat (POF), cardiac, bone marrow (BM) or other tissues biopsies in a cohort of 33 patients.
