  • this person had thickened ventricle walls

  • the white scarred tissues are remnants of old myocardial infarctions

  • the new, yellower tissue is a recent result of degradation of dead myocardial cells. substances from inside these dead cells leak out and blood tests can reveal that the person has had a MI
