A multicenter study of clinical predictors of positive pyrophosphate scintigraphy findings in the diagnosis of transthyretin amyloidosis
The combination of clinical information, which is easily available in local clinics, can provide accurate pretest prediction of positive <sup>99m</sup>Tc-PYP scintigraphy results. This will help clinicians to make an early diagnosis of ATTR amyloidosis.
