Echocardiographic Markers of Cardiac Response to Therapy in Patients with Light Chain Amyloidosis
Improvement in GLS correlated with improvement in RV and left atrial strain measurements in AL-CA patients receiving treatment. Changes in RV strain were seen early, within 1 year of treatment. Our study suggests that strain imaging in conjunction with cardiac biomarkers can provide a comprehensive assessment of cardiac response.
