Detecting Early Myocardial Infiltration w/Amyloid & Light Chain Deposition Disease in Multiple Myeloma Subjects

May 30, 2017 updated by: University of Arkansas

Role of Cardiac MR (CMR) In Detecting Features of Early Myocardial Infiltration With Amyloid and Light Chain Deposition Disease in Subjects With Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to see if MRI techniques can be used for early evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis which is sometimes seen in individuals with multiple myeloma. Cardiac amyloidosis is a medical disorder that decreases heart function.
