Clinical utility of cardiac troponin I and cardiac troponin T measurements

M Adamcová et al. Acta Medica (Hradec Kralove). 1997.

Abstract

The measurement of CK-MB remains the test of choice for confirmation or exclusion of AMI and probably will remain the test of choice for routine diagnosis in the near future. Nowadays determination of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as a method relatively expensive and time-consuming should be restricted to clinical settings that really require their high specificity.
