Examples of histopathological indicators. Examples of the various histopathological indicators of tissue damage at different damage scores: A = Eosinophilic changes in the myocyte (Ischemia), B = Reduction and/or loss of cross striation (Loss of striation), C = Coagulation necrosis (Necrosis), D = Infiltration of poly-morphonuclear cells (PMN). The estimated degree of damage in each sample is graded in a 0–3 scale. For further information see text.
