Why Can't My ECG Rule Out Anterior Infarct?

I got an ECG today and it came back abnormal. The QT/QTc 326/300 ms. Qrs duration 86 ms says cannot rule out anterior infarct. I know an infarction to be a heart attack. What does this mean

    The infarction means dead cells. If the ECG is abnormal and doctor says infarction, it means there is some damage to the heart muscles due to blockage of coronary artery. This can be due to ischemic heart disease. The high cholesterol levels and the smoking are major cause.
