| Abstract: | Living donor liver transplantation is increasingly being used to help compensate for the increasing shortage of cadaveric liver grafts. However, the extreme variability of the hepatic vascular and biliary systems can impede this surgical procedure. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the role of MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) in the evaluation of anatomical biliary variants in potential living donors for liver transplantation. |
