The most commonly encountered pathology on 2D echocardiography is increased left ventricular thickness (secondary to amyloid fibrils deposition in the extracellular matrix). Advanced echocardiographic techniques (strain and strain rate imaging) can differentiate cardiomyopathy secondary to amyloidosis from other causes of left ventricular hypertrophy. In regards to the evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis, EFSR has approximately 90% and 92% sensitivity and specificity, respectively.
