Why is it important?
The most predominantly used test at present is to measure biomarkers, especially D-dimer. But D-dimer is not useful because D-dimer cannot give subsequent suitable treatments. On the contrary the test using non-anticoagulated blood can do.

This test , Global Thrombosis Test (GTT), will be widely used in the future not only at hospital but in various fields such as agriculture, food company, pharmaceutical company, sports company, dietary company and so on to prevent thrombotic disorders.
