Abstract

Serial block face scanning electron microscopy (SBF-SEM) was used to image ventricular cardiac myocytes in healthy and myocardial infarction (MI) sheep. 3-dimensional renderings of EM stacks of images revealed an increase of t-tubule remodelling following myocardial infarction, from the remote myocardium to the peri-infarct border zone. This study, thereby increases our understanding of the cardiac ultrastructural remodelling following MI.
