NCT03040427
Brief Summary:
The investigators postulate that F-18 florbetapir will show improved detection of cardiac amyloidosis over conventional non-invasive imaging techniques, particularly in early disease.
Detailed Description:
F-18 florbetapir is currently used for the early detection of brain amyloid (Alzheimer's disease). The hypothesis is that F-18 florbetapir will detect amyloid deposition in myocardium prior to current non-invasive diagnostic measures, particular electrocardiography with strain and technetium pyrophosphate scintigraphy. The investigators intend to use F-18 florbetapir and assess its correlation between standard non-invasive diagnostic modalities.
