CREATINE PHOSPHOKINASE -MB FRACTION (CPKMB)

The?CPK-MB test?(creatine phosphokinase-MB), also known as?CK-MB test, is a cardiac marker used to assist diagnoses of an acute myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, or myocarditis. It measures the blood level of CK-MB (creatine kinase myocardial band), the bound combination of two variants (isoenzymes CKM and CKB) of the enzyme phosphocreatine kinase.
