Background
A precise estimation of the capacity of the remnant liver following partial liver resection is important. In this study, the regional function of the liver in patients undergoing living‐donor liver transplantation was evaluated by gadolinium–ethoxybenzyl‐diethylenetriamine penta‐acetic acid (
Method
Results
Thirty‐two living donors and 31 recipients undergoing living‐donor liver transplantation were enrolled. In donors, the
Conclusion
The function of the congested region secondary to outflow obstruction in the remnant donor liver was approximately 70 per cent of that in the non‐congested region.
