Abstract:: Aims: Availability of mortality-reducing therapies for cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has led to an increase in referral rates to tertiary care centers. Investigations to improve diagnosis rates are urgently needed, as diagnosis of CA requires a multimodal approach, and its early diagnosis is crucial due to high mortality in untreated patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of the left and right atrial reservoir strain (RASr & LASr) in differentiating CA patients from patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
