This is diagnostic of myocardial infarction. Troponin elevation is dependent on presence or absence of occlusion (remember many OMI receive a diagnosis of NSTEMI), duration of occlusion (which is dependent on rapidity of therapy or the luck of spontaneous reperfusion), area of myocardium at risk, collateral circulation, and more.
