The degradation of materials is currently investigated by studying different samples of the same material at different time points after degradation in a medium. This study is presenting a high-resolution time-lapse investigation of Mg-2Ag in culture medium using synchrotron radiation-based micro-computed tomography over the course of 5 days. The design of the custom-built corrosion cell and bioreactor are described. The computed degradation rate after 5 days is in agreement with the literature. SRµCT enables the segmentation of cracks forming in the degradation layer due to stresses and hydrogen development.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1002/maco.201709514} (DOI).
