#IMPOCUS and end-stage infiltrative amyloid cardiomyopathy. LV thickening is generally symmetric and dynamic LV outflow tract obstruction is rare. "Sparkling" myocardium is actually only 26-36% sensitive and 71-81% specific.

@IMUS_Spokane Thanks Kang! Great to hear from you. I made it down to the two day ACP POCUS pre-course in New Orleans and it was a blast. Things are good in Rochester as it's finally stopped snowing and we're officially in Spring. Hope all's well in Spokane tool!

A truly fantastic 2018 ACP ultrasound pre-course for all levels of #IMPOCUS enthusiasts, with such great pearls from so many wonderful instructors. Will highly recommend the course in future years, thanks again to all!
