Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) are cornerstone markers for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) because they provide important diagnostic and prognostic information.¹ High-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays allow the measurement of very low concentrations of cardiac troponin and appear to facilitate detection of unstable coronary artery disease (CAD).² There are also some data suggesting that cardiac troponin values and particularly high-sensitivity cardiac troponin values are helpful in identifying the high-risk group of patients with putatively stable CAD.
