Overview
Total body SAP component scintigraphy may be used in the workup and follow-up of patients with amyloid deposition. This method has been observed to have high sensitivity (90%) and requires a low radioactive dose which makes it a safe and effective method. The radiolabeled SAP binds to aa amyloid and localizes its deposition semi-quantitatively.
Other Imaging Findings
Total Body SAP Scintigraphy
- Total body SAP component scintigraphy may be used in the workup and follow-up of patients with amyloid deposition.[1][2][3]
- This method has been observed to have high sensitivity (90%) and requires a low radioactive dose which makes its usage safe and effective.
- However, this imaging modality is unable to identify deposits in hollow, diffuse, or small structures, such as the gastrointestinal tract, skin, and nerves.
- Also, SAP scintigraphy is unable to detect cardiac and lung involvement due to movement and blood content of these organs.
- Additionally, uremic cardiomyopathy is not distinguishable from amyloid deposition and cardiac magnetic resonance is relatively contraindicated in patients with secondary amyloidosis due to advanced renal disease.
