This study made it possible to determine the presence of cardiac tissue , through the literature review of cardiology, the possible causes of an acute myocardial infarction, the physiology of a healthy heart, the comparison of the injured tissues and regions of the heart with an unchanged one, as well as the methods and materials used for such comparison.Acesso AbertoBiomedicinaCiências BiológicasInfarto AgudoMiocárdioAlterações MorfológicasProjeto IntegradoCNPQ::CIENCIAS BIOLOGICASRelatório de Pesquisa
