CK (creatine kinase) is an enzyme that leaks out of the damaged muscle. Elevated creatine kinase levels indicate the destruction of the muscle by some abnormal process such as muscular dystrophy, strenuous exercise, and inflammation of the muscles (myositis). It can be identified in the blood samples.
