ISA 2024 | Challenges in understanding and diagnosing ATTR amyloidosis

In this video, Lorena Saelices Gomez, PhD, UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, discusses challenges in understanding transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibril structure and the clinical implications of this. Variability in clinical manifestations complicates early diagnosis and assessment of disease progression, and Dr Saelices Gomez emphasizes the need for easy, non-invasive detection tools to improve screening and diagnosis of ATTR amyloidosis. This interview took place at the XIX International Symposium on Amyloidosis (ISA) in Rochester, MN.
