Accurate histologic identification is essential for guiding appropriate treatment, yet the diagnostic process remains challenging.

A noninvasive multimodality imaging approach has recently emerged as an alternative, but standardized protocols and supporting evidence are still lacking. Echocardiography is typically the initial imaging modality, with cardiac magnetic resonance recognized as the noninvasive diagnostic gold standard. Cardiac computed tomography provides complementary data to aid in diagnosis and management, while positron emission tomography serves as a third-level imaging option.
