This article introduces a fundamental cardiac predissection technique, perfusion-distention fixation by gravity, which can preserve the 3D anatomy of a cardiac specimen. Examples of cardiac specimens preserved in various methods, including wet specimens, wax-infiltrated hearts, and 3D-printed models created after performing this technique, are shown.
Perfusion-distention fixation by gravity is a fundamental cardiac predissection technique that may be used to preserve the 3D anatomy of a cardiac specimen. The equipment and steps are illustrated, and examples of cardiac specimens preserved in various methods including wet specimens, wax-infiltrated hearts, and 3D-printed models, created after performing this technique, are shown.
