- Liver transplantation is the primary treatment for end-stage liver disease, but there's limited information on the best imaging practices for monitoring children during the procedure.
- A survey conducted by the European Society of Pediatric Radiology gathered feedback from 22 centers across 11 countries regarding their intraoperative imaging techniques.
- Results showed that all centers use intraoperative ultrasound (US), mainly relying on color Doppler, but there's significant variation in how the ultrasound is conducted, including who operates the equipment and how often imaging is performed.
