Why the study?
Can conventional ECG and ECHO adequately predict the size of myocardial infarct in rats compared to histopathology?
Can conventional ECG and ECHO adequately predict the size of myocardial infarct in rats compared to histopathology?
Conventional ECG and ECHO can be used to estimate myocardial infarct size in rat models, with ECHO at 7 days post-infarction being the most accurate.

Enables refined timing for noninvasive infarct assessment in rat models; leaves open generalizability to other species.
