The present invention relates to methods and compositions for specifically and quantitatively detecting galectin-3 in a sample. Embodiments of the invention include a detection assay in which a capture binding moiety and a labeled binding moiety specifically recognize non-overlapping epitopes on the N-terminus of galectin-3. Further embodiments are directed to a method for establishing ranges of galectin-3 concentrations indicative of the presence and severity of heart failure in a subject and a method for predicting the clinical outcome of a subject based upon galectin-3 concentration.
