  • Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis 99mTc-DPD SPECTcorrelates with strain echocardiography and biomarkers

    • Purpose: Hereditary transthyretin-amyloid amyloidosis (ATTRv) is an underdiagnosed condition commonly manifesting as congestive heart failure. Recently, scintigraphy utilizing DPD as a tracer was shown to identify ATTRv and wild-type ATTR cardiomyopathy. The aim of this study was to determine the value of quantified scintigraphy utilizing 99mTc-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT, and to correlate its uptake with well-established cardiac functional parameters.Methods: Forty-eight patients with genetically verified ATTRv type-A fibril composition, positive 99mTc-DPD SPECT/CT, were retrospectively analyzed. Manual mapping of volumes of interest (VOIs) on DPD SPECT/CT examinations was used to quantify heart uptake. DPD mean and maximum uptake together with a calculated DPD-based amyloid burden (DPDload) was correlated with echocardiographic strain values and cardiac biomarkers.Results: Statistically significant correlations were seen in VOIs between DPD uptakes and the corresponding echocardiographic strain values. Furthermore, DPDload had a strong correlation with echocardiographic strain parameters and also correlated with biomarkers troponin T and logarithmic NT-ProBNP.Conclusions: In patients with ATTRv cardiomyopathy, DPD SPECT/CT measures the amyloid distribution and provides information on cardiac amyloid load. DPD amyloid load correlates with functional cardiac parameters.

  • Quantification of cardiac amyloid with [18F]Flutemetamol in patients with V30M hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Amyloid. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1350-6129 .- 1744-2818. ; 27:3, s. 191-199

    • Background: Hereditary transthyretin amyloid (ATTRv) is a systemic amyloidosis with mainly neurological and cardiac symptoms. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of [18F]Flutemetamol PET/CT-scan of the heart in long-term survivors with ATTRV30M amyloidosis.Methods: Twenty-one patients with ATTRV30M amyloidosis and predominantly neurological symptoms, mainly negative on cardiac 99mtechnetium-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD)-scintigraphy, were examined with a dynamic [18F]Flutemetamol PET/CT-scan. Five patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and one healthy individual served as controls. Volumes of interests were drawn over the intraventricular septum, lateral wall of the left ventricle and free wall of the right ventricle. Clinical records were reviewed for data from previous completed DPD-scintigraphy of the heart and echocardiography.Results: Patients with ATTRv amyloidosis had a higher cardiac uptake than the control-group in all analysed regions of the heart and could be identified with high accuracy (sensitivity 88%, specificity 100%) in static image acquisition at 30 or 60 min. We found no correlation between cardiac [18F]Flutemetamol uptake and clinical variables.Conclusion: In this small study of selected patients, cardiac [18F]Flutemetamol PET/CT could differentiate between healthy individuals and patients with ATTRV30M. [18F]Flutemetamol PET/CT imaging of amyloidosis in patients with a negative DPD-scintigraphy has a potential as a diagnostic method.

  • Cerebellar and Cerebral Amyloid Visualized by [18F]flutemetamol PET in Long-Term Hereditary V30M (p.V50M) Transthyretin Amyloidosis Survivors
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Frontiers in Neurology. - : Frontiers Media S.A.. - 1664-2295. ; 13
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction: Hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis caused by the V30M (p. V50M) mutation is a fatal, neuropathic systemic amyloidosis. Liver transplantation has prolonged the survival of patients and central nervous system (CNS) complications, attributed to amyloid angiopathy caused by CNS synthesis of variant transthyretin, have emerged. The study aimed to ascertain amyloid deposition within the brain in long-term ATTRv amyloidosis survivors with neurological symptoms from the CNS.Methods: A total of 20 patients with ATTR V30M having symptoms from the CNS and a median disease duration of 16 years (8–25 years) were included in this study. The cognitive and peripheral nervous functions were determined for 18 patients cross-sectionally at the time of the investigation. Amyloid brain deposits were examined by [18F]flutemetamol PET/CT. Five patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) served as positive controls.Result: 60% of the patients with ATTRv had a pathological Z-score in the cerebellum, compared to only 20% in the patients with AD. 75% of the patients with transient focal neurological episodes (TFNEs) displayed a pathological uptake only in the cerebellum. Increased cerebellar uptake was related to an early age of onset of the ATTRv disease. 55% of the patients with ATTRv had a pathological Z-score in the global cerebral region compared to 100% of the patients with AD.Conclusion: Amyloid deposition within the brain after long-standing ATTRv amyloidosis is common, especially in the cerebellum. A cerebellar amyloid uptake profile seems to be related to TFNE symptoms.
