Core Tip Non-invasive diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid (TTR) cardiomyopathy is improving with significant developments in multiple imaging modalities available to date. A greater appreciation of the various strengths and limitations of these imaging modalities is vital, as is high clinical suspicion and timely investigation for the disease, which remains insidious and elusive. This is of particular relevance in light of emerging novel effective therapeutic options. This focused review aims to highlight the role of multimodality imaging in the diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with TTR cardiomyopathy.
