Right atrial deformation analysis in cardiac amyloidosis – Results from the three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiographic MAGYAR-Path Study
Background: Light-chain (AL) cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is characterized by fibril deposits, which are composed of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains. The right ventricle is mostly involved in AL-CA and impairment of its function is a predictor of worse prognosis.
