They vary in sensitivity and specificity (especially in the first few hours after an infarct), and you have to correlate them... very quickly and dramatically after MI (within 2-8 hours). It returns to normal within 1-3 days, which makes it a good test to use in diagnosing re-infarction.

of a 100% occluded wraparound (type III) LAD was about 80 minutes (very short). Nevertheless, the patient suffered a large myocardial infarction, with a peak troponin I of 290 ng/ml... of this is due to (irreversible) infarction vs. temporary "stunning". His follow-up ECG the next day is shown below.
There are "reperfusion" T-waves in V1-V6 and I, aVL
