BIOMARKERS FOR ATHEROSCLEROSIS

摘要

The invention provides compositions and methods for defining the state of atherosclerotic degeneration processes for the purposes of detection, severity assessment, monitoring and treatment. The states of atherosclerotic degeneration processes are identified by means of a biomarker panel particularly suited for detecting atherosclerotic degeneration processes. The simultaneous use of multiple markers with independent classification power will increase the performance of the panel in identifying atherosclerosis compared to other panels.
