Core Tip	At times, distinguishing between myocardial infarction with ST elevation (STEMI) from non-ischemic causes of elevation of the ST segment is difficult, especially in patients with atypical presenting symptoms. Understanding common patterns of ST elevation that are not caused by ischemia is crucial for rapid and accurate diagnosis. However, patients with baseline non-ischemic ST elevation (for example, early repolarization or repolarization changes caused by hypertrophy of the left ventricule) may develop acute myocardial infarction (true STEMI or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction with baseline ST elevation). Here we describe common patterns of non-ischemic ST elevation.
