Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to see if MRI techniques can be used for early evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis which is sometimes seen in individuals with multiple myeloma. Cardiac amyloidosis is a medical disorder that decreases heart function.
Detailed description
The purpose is to investigate the use of multiple newer CMR techniques for early evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis in multiple myeloma.
Interventions
