Several serum cardiac markers such as myoglobulin, CKMB and Troponin T (TnT) are found to increase sensitivity in detecting AMI than just history and ECG. Among them TnT is a better predictor of adverse cardiac event than CKMB. Absence of TnT elevation identifies a lower risk group of patients , but not necessarily a low risk group since TnT cannot detect myocardial ischaemia in the absence of myocardial injury or myocyte cell death.
