healthy/strong myocardium


Explanation:
... without more context

kräftig = strong, robust, healthy (Reuter, Medizinisches Wörterbuch, Thieme)

We then determine how structural differences between healthy myocardium and chronic infarct affect the dielectric measurements of the two substrates. This is done by assessing the gross histology of healthy myocardium, chronic infarct, and of the transitional region in between.

When gadolinium is “taken up” by nonviable or scarred myocardium, it is not washed out as quickly as healthy myocardium due to poor blood flow, and thus images taken > 10 minutes after gadolinium injection will exhibit hyperenhancement or late gadolinium enhancement (regions where gadolinium is retained).

You can have a strong myocardium and still have clogged arteries as a result of poor diet, genetics, aging, other abusive habits, etc.

Non-uniformity in cardiac muscle triggers propagated Ca2+ waves/contractions (TPCs) causing arrhythmias. TPCs and Ca2+ waves are initiated by the cycle of stretch and release in the border between damaged (weak) and intact (strong) myocardium.
