Why the study?
Does cardioplegia with Bretschneider's solution or BDM induce myocardial edema detectable by 3D MRI in pig hearts compared to no cardioplegia?

3D MRI assessment can accurately detect and localize induced myocardial edema in pig hearts, offering a potential tool for monitoring cardioplegia.
