Would angina increase troponins? not an actual mi?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You can have elevated troponins without heart damage. Usually this is of concern and that type of elevation warrants close observation. Other causes for elevated troponin,include hypertrophic heart, and if renal problems troponin can be elevated.
