This a great lecture , with Dr. Rodney Falk who dedicated his entire career on the research of amyloidosis- realize that you probably miss AL , but especially ATTRwt amyloid very frequently in the ICU- this is NOT a rare disease anymore ( see earlier postings ). It is also the diagnosis mostly frequently missed by Cardiologists ( discusssed in the lecture ) .
The opinions expressed on this website are that of my own and do not reflect that of any employer or commercial organization.
