MI = "Myocardial infarction". This occurs when the heart muscle is unable to receive enough oxygen for it to work properly. This can lead to muscle damage and death of some of the cells of the heart muscle. The infarct refers to the damage/death of the cell which therefor can no longer function and sometimes is replaced by scar tissue
