Recommendations

As issued by the authors

  1. Likelihood of cardiac sarcoidosis should be considered a continuum (definite, highly probable, probable, possible, low probability, unlikely) rather than binary.

  2. Treatment should be initiated in individuals with clinical manifestations and active inflammation in a tiered approach, with corticosteroids as first-line treatment.
