Official Title: Role of Cardiac MR (CMR) In Detecting Features of Early Myocardial Infiltration With Amyloid and Light Chain Deposition Disease in Subjects With Multiple Myeloma

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 Summary: The purpose is to investigate the use of multiple newer CMR techniques for early evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis in multiple myeloma.
Sponsor: University of Arkansas
