Thesis
Metabolic assessment of perfused livers using magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy
- Abstract:
-
Liver transplantation is the only definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease. However, a shortage of suitable donor organs means that currently up to 30% of patients become too ill or die before ever receiving a transplant. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) offers a potential solution by reducing preservation injury which might enable the safe transplantation of higher-risk livers, thereby expanding the donor pool and reducing waiting list mortality. To achieve the full potential ...
