Amyloidosis
SALONS DE ROMREE, GRIMBERGEN
Systemic amyloidosis (AA, AL and ATTR) is a group of diseases in which abnormal proteins build up in tissue.
There are many different ways of manifestation of this disease. The diagnosis is complex, but important for correct treatment. Systemic amyloidosis requires a multidisciplinary collaboration between different medical specialists. With this symposium we want to bring different specialists together to provide state-of-the-art insights in pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of amyloidosis.
