A 74-year-old Caucasian man with hypertension and hereditary hemochromatosis presented with new onset atrial fibrillation. An echocardiogram (TTE) showed marked concentric hypertrophy with abnormally low global longitudinal strain (GLS) of − 11.4% and apical sparing. Iron overload cardiomyopathy was ruled out by a cardiac MRI; however, diffuse late gadolinium uptake was suggestive of amyloid deposition. Serum immunofixation and free light chains were negative for AL amyloidosis. Wild-type (senile) transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis (CA) was suspected given patient’s age. A 99mTc-methylene diphosphate (MDP) bone scan was carried out; however, it did not show any cardiac uptake (Figures 1, 2, Panel 1). Repeat imaging was performed using 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP), which showed intense tracer uptake diffusely in the myocardium (Figures 1 and 2, Panel 2).
