Abstract Aims The prognostic role of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) as a biomarker in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has yet to be fully determined, especially when compared with B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods and Results In this post‐hoc analysis of the ILLUMINATE‐CS (ILLUstration of the Management and prognosIs of ...
