Criteria for viability assessment of discarded human donor livers during ex vivo normothermic machine perfusion.

Criteria for viability assessment of discarded human donor livers during ex vivo normothermic machine perfusion.

Although normothermic machine perfusion of donor livers may allow assessment of graft viability prior to transplantation, there are currently no data on what would be a good parameter of graft viability. To determine whether bile production is a suitable biomarker that can be used to discriminate vi...
