Why the study?
Does low-sodium contrast medium increase the incidence of ventricular fibrillation during selective coronary arteriography in a canine model?
Does low-sodium contrast medium increase the incidence of ventricular fibrillation during selective coronary arteriography in a canine model?
Low-sodium contrast media significantly increase the risk of ventricular fibrillation during coronary arteriography, suggesting sodium levels should be kept near normal serum levels.

Alerts to VF risk from low-sodium contrast in arteriography; leaves open clinical relevance pending human studies.
