Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) is an increasingly diagnosed disease. Echocardiography is widely utilized, but studies to confirm the value of echocardiography for tracking changes over time are not available. We sought to describe (i) changes in multiple echocardiographic parameters; (ii) differences in rate of progression of three predominant genotypes; and (iii) the ability of changes in echocardiographic parameters to predict prognosis.
