CT - Liver Donor Protocol

CT Liver Donor Protocol is an advanced imaging study performed to assess potential liver donors before transplantation. This scan provides detailed visualization of liver anatomy, including liver segments, hepatic arteries, portal veins, hepatic veins, and biliary structures.

The test plays a critical role in determining whether a person is a suitable donor by evaluating liver volume, vascular variations, and overall liver health. It helps surgeons plan the transplant procedure by mapping the blood supply and drainage of the liver accurately.

This procedure involves the use of contrast dye to enhance imaging and is performed in multiple phases to capture detailed information about liver perfusion and vascular anatomy. CT Liver Donor Protocol is essential for ensuring donor safety and optimizing transplant outcomes.

This test is recommended for individuals with:

• Evaluation as a potential liver donor
• Pre-transplant assessment requirements
• Need for detailed liver vascular mapping
• Clinical indication for liver transplantation planning
