Resection plane-dependent error in computed tomography volumetry of the right hepatic lobe in living liver donors

Background/Aims Computed tomography (CT) hepatic volumetry is currently accepted as the most reliable method for preoperative estimation of graft weight in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). However, several factors can cause inaccuracies in CT volumetry compared to real graft weight. The pu...
