❤️ Cardiac Markers Tests

Tests that detect heart muscle damage and assess cardiovascular risk.

Cardiac Troponin (Troponin I & T)(Troponin)

Troponin is the gold-standard biomarker for diagnosing heart muscle damage. High-sensitivity troponin assays can detect injury within 1–3 hours of a heart attack, enabling faster rule-in and rule-out of acute myocardial infarction.

Venous blood (serum separator tube)

BNP / NT-proBNP (Heart Failure Marker)(BNP / NT-proBNP)

BNP and NT-proBNP are hormones released by stretched heart muscle — they are the primary blood tests for diagnosing heart failure and monitoring treatment response.

Venous blood (EDTA for BNP; serum for NT-proBNP)
