BACKGROUND: Quantifying myocardial extracellular volume (ECV) using computed tomography (CT) has been shown to be useful in the evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis. However, the reproducibility of CT measurements for myocardial ECV, is not well-established in patients with proven cardiac amyloidosis. METHODS: This prospective single-center study enrolled cardiac amyloidosis patients to undergo dual-energy CT for myocardial fibrosis assessment. Delayed imaging at 7 and 8 ​min post-contrast and independent evaluations by two blinded cardiologists were performed for ECV quantification using 16-segment (ECV RESULTS: Among the 24 participants (median age ​= ​78, 67 ​% male), CT ECV CONCLUSIONS: Dual-energy CT-derived ECV measurements demonstrated good reproducibility in patients with proven cardiac amyloidosis, suggesting potential utility as a repeatable imaging biomarker for this disease.
