The liver segmentation system, described by Couinaud, is based on the identification of the
three hepatic veins and the plane passing by the portal vein bifurcation. Nowadays …

The normal anatomy of the portal vein is defined as a division of the main portal vein into two
branches-the left (supplying segments II, III, and IV) and right portal veins; the right dividing …

OBJECTIVE. This study was performed to document the impact of multidetector multiphase
CT in facilitating patient selection and surgical planning in potential donors being evaluated …

Hepatectomy is a complicated operative procedure because of its anatomical complexity,
vascular variability, and impaired hepatic function due to associated hepatitis or cirrhosis …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility, reproducibility, and technical quality of a dynamic
contrast material–enhanced isotropic three-dimensional (3D) volumetric interpolated breath …

OBJECTIVE. Our objective was to investigate the prevalence of variant main and right portal
vein ramification in a large group of patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. The study group …

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the types and prevalence rates of anatomic
variations of the hepatic veins, portal vein, inferior vena cava and renal veins, and to …

OBJECTIVE. Our aim was to investigate the feasibility of MR imaging as a comprehensive
preoperative imaging test for examination of liver donor candidates for adult-to-adult right …

Purpose: To review the distribution of intrahepatic portal venous branching in order to
determine the prevalence of variations. Material and Methods: We made a retrospective …

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to assess the incidence of hepatic vein variations
on multidetector CT (MDCT) for abdominal examinations. Methods: A retrospective analysis …
