Thank you.

Hello, uh, I'm Owais.
12:00
I am one of the, um, clinical fellows at the National Amyloid Centre in London, which is the tertiary referral center for, uh, all amyloidosis patients in the UK.
12:09
Um, so I have extensive experience, uh, managing patients with ATTR-CM.
12:16
So what I'd like to talk about today, um, is why imaging is so important.
12:20
So traditionally, we've relied on biomarkers such as BNP and troponin.
12:25
They're useful, but fundamentally, uh, they're late and indirect markers reflecting downstream consequences like wall stress and myocardial injury rather than the underlying disease itself.
