Popis: Aim: In this study, we investigated the diagnostic value of IMA in the positive and negative predictive value of ACS, alone and in combination with TnI. The study population was divided into 3 groups. The first group included those patients with normal coronary arteries (n=40), the second group included the ACS patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=49), and the third group included the ACS patients with Non ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction-Unstable Angina (NSTEMI-UA) (n=47). Although its use for diagnostic purposes did not provide an additional benefit for ACS patients, we found that the combination of TnI and IMA could better rule out ACS compared to TnI alone.
