… Search results 2 May 2017 According to Sander Streng, a researcher at Maastricht University, the hospital test used to determine whether someone has had a heart attack needs improving. His research focuses primarily on the protein troponin T and the hospital test aims to determine the concentration of this substance in the bloodstream. Using mass spectrometry and other technologies, Streng was the first to … of troponin T. Refining the diagnostic test can help rule out false positive results, which sometimes occur among kidney patients, diabetics, elderly people and athletes. Streng will receive his PhD from Maastricht University on Thursday 4 May. Heart attacks damage the heart muscle, causing it to release troponin T into the blood stream. This leads to elevated concentrations of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in the blood, which can be detected by a hospital lab test. In addition to an ECG, this test is the gold standard of diagnosing a heart attack in patients with chest pain.
