Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is highly specific for cardiac muscle. In this study, we compared the utility of CK and CK-MB index versus cTnI in the assessment of myocardial infarction in 155 patients being evaluated for myocardial damage. As a cardiac marker for MI, Troponin I seems to be superior to C
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) disrupts cardiac cell membranes, releasing intracellular cardiac proteins into the vascular system. Some of these proteins, including the cardiac troponin subunits T and I, have proven useful for diagnosing myocardial damage. Intracoronary thrombosis plays a key rol
