Diagnostic accuracy is critical for the identification and treatment of patients with potential cardiac disease. There is now an ever-increasing reliance on the measured levels of diverse proteins (i.e. markers) whose presence in varying amounts can suggest certain cardiovascular pathologies and help to identify optimal therapeutic alternatives. Cardiac Markers: Current and Future Applications is designed to familiarize the reader with these concepts, and to facilitate the application of these concepts to patients with cardiac disease.
