Case report of HMDP washout at 3hrs in cardiac amyloidosis. Key points:.1. 99mTc has more stable tagging to HMDP than PYP, leading to less free 99mTc in blood pool.2. HMDP may wash out of the myocardium more quickly than PYP.3. Consider imaging with HMDP prior to 3hrs

Last night celebrated 40 years since we performed our first heart transplant at @MidAmericaHeart . We started our heart failure fellowship well before there was ACGME accreditation. Proud of Dr. Colin Kenny for graduating and carrying on a long history of excellent HF care!

Reminder to everyone who got their MDs in the last 24 hours that PSA screening for prostate cancer after age 70 is not recommended. Maybe, just maybe, his physicians were practicing evidence based medicine as opposed to orchestrating a cover-up? .

Training internists to provide specialized heart failure (HF) care is feasible. Training HF internists may be a novel solution to augment the HF workforce in the US. #ACC25 #ACCFIT #JACCHF #HeartFailure @EiranGorodeski
