Core Tip High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays enable cardiac troponin measurement with a high degree of analytical sensitivity with a low analytical imprecision at the low measuring range. One of the most important advantages of these new assays is that they allow novel, more rapid approaches to rule in or rule out acute coronary syndromes (ACSs). The increase in early diagnostic sensitivity of hs-cTn assays for ACS comes at the cost of a reduced ACS specificity, because more patients with other causes of acute or chronic myocardial injury without overt myocardial ischemia are detected than with previous cTn assays.
