In Type 2 MI with underlying CAD Troponin may be >1, my question is what is the unit used to measure troponin

[@eliashanna8248]

It is 1 ng/ml, the unit used in conventional troponin assays. This could correspond to 1000 ng/L using high-sensitivity (hs) troponin assays. However, the conversion truly depends on the hs-troponin assay, and it is not exactly x1000.; such comparative data is not available, to my knowledge, and my observation suggests that 1 ng/ml may correspond to 200-300 ng/L with some hs-troponin assays (i.e., >200-300 ng/L hs-troponin may be highly suggestive of underlying CAD or type 1 MI)
