Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac scintigraphy in the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis: A meta-analysis of 4866 patients
Cardiac scintigraphy, particularly with 99mTc-HMDP, offers superior diagnostic accuracy for CA compared to CMR imaging. Controlled, randomized, prospective studies directly comparing these non-invasive techniques are essential to validate these findings.
