Importance of Early Diagnosis in Amyloidosis

Early diagnosis in amyloidosis is crucial as identifying the disease before advanced organ damage occurs significantly impacts treatment options and reduces morbidity. Patients with a non-monoclonal gamma apathy under hematologic follow-up should also be evaluated for potential progression towards amyloidosis. Screening for early organ involvement through biomarkers allows for presymptomatic detection and successful treatment outcomes.
