Troponin 1 value of 0.32

2020-01-03 20:03:37
My dad complained of sweating . Upon taking medical advice , ECG and 2D Echo were found normal but Troponin1 test was marked positive with a value 0.32 ng/ml . An associate doctor said it is alarming and Angioplasty is needed . While I 'll pursue medical route , just want to know from this forum if this is really alarming for a 70 yrs old diabetic patient .
