What is the area of dead tissue affected by a heart attack called?

What is the difference between intramusclar haematoma and intermusclar haematoma?
A haematoma is basically the bleeding either into or around the muscle. if the bleeding is within the muscle it is called an 'intramuscular' haematoma this type of haematoma will lead to a pressure build up within the muscle tissue as the blood is trapped within the muscle sheath. this will result in a marked decrease in the strength or the injured muscle, a noticeable decrease in muscle stretch and a long recovery period. so, bleeding around the muscle tissue is called an intermusclar haematoma. this type of haematoma is much less severe than an intramuscular haematoma because the blood can escape can escape from the damaged muscle and into the surrounding tissues, so there is less pressure in the area and the injury can recover more quickly.
