Usefulness of the 12-lead electrocardiogram in detection of myocardial infarction: electrocardiographic-anatomic correlations--part I.
This two-part review evaluates a 56-year period (1938-1994) of electrocardiographic-necropsy correlation studies. Part I focuses on definitions of infarct location and evaluates anterior infarctions. Part II will focus on lateral and posterior infarcts.
