abstract：BACKGROUND:In adult living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), the assessment of the graft functional reserve is very important. We evaluated the graft functional reserve by technetium-99m-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid-galactosyl-human serum albumin ((99m)Tc-GSA) liver scintigraphy. PATIENTS AND METHOD:From May ...
