Description
Our Troponin Test for Dogs is a simple blood test. It will tell you whether or not your best friend is affected by cardiac damage.
Cardiac Troponin I (Tn1), is a sensitive and specific circulating marker of cardiac damage in canines.
Cardiac injury leads to the release of cardiac Tn1 into circulation, where its concentration correlates with the degree of cardiac damage. Heart disease can increase the troponin levels and create ongoing myocardial injury, so frequent monitoring is critical.
Clinical Application of Troponin Test for Dogs:
- Cardiac Injury or Damage Testing in Dogs
- Increased TnI indicates rising severity of mitral valve disease (MMVD)
- Detects early phases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)
- Provides prognostic information regardless of the underlying cardiac or non-cardiac disease
Dragon Lab’s testing service provides same day results, which is one of the fastest turn around times of Troponin Tn1 testing labs in UK.
