Abstract
Diagnostic and interventional radiology play major roles in the evaluation and management of liver transplant patients. This article begins with a discussion of imaging techniques used in the preoperative evaluation of transplant candidates. Surgical approaches and normal posttransplant anatomy are presented. An in-depth discussion of the radiologic evaluation of posttransplantation complications follows, with numerous illustrative cases. Finally, the role of interventional radiology in the nonoperative management of certain complications, especially biliary problems, is discussed.Entities:
