Scientific name: Creatine Kinase (CK) Isoenzymes Test

CK Isoenzymes analysis is a laboratory test used to measure the levels of different creatine kinase isoenzymes in the blood. Creatine kinase is an important enzyme found in muscles, the heart, and the brain, and it plays a key role in energy production. The isoenzymes are divided into three main types: CK-MM (associated with skeletal muscles), CK-M...
