3. Fig. 2
Ultrafast computed tomographic scan of 35-year-old woman at end-diastole (A) and end-systole (B) 1 year after transmural lateral wall myocardial infarction. Circular area is left ventricle, and crescentic-shaped right ventricle is to the left. Note, in particular, thin infarcted myocardium surrounding contrast-filled left ventricular chamber in lateral-inferior myocardial wall (right and inferior to center of left ventricular chamber).

Electron photomicrograph of normal (A) and acutely infarcted (B) myocardium. Myocytes are uniform in shape and site in normal myocardium but are in disarray with myocyte bundle rearrangement (“slippage”) evident in acutely infarcted myocardium.

Serial changes in absolute left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular muscle mass (LVM), and volume/mass (V/M) ratio during first year after anterior wall myocardial infarction, d/c = discharge; * = P<0.05 versus discharge.

Schematic illustration of proposed “natural history” of postinfarction cardiac remodeling. (See text for details.) CHF = congestive heart failure; m O2 = minute venous oxygen consumption; V/M = volume/mass ratio.
