pubmed-article:7620406 | pubmed:abstractText | Accurate noninvasive measurement of the volume of the liver has many potential clinical applications and is an important element in the preoperative evaluation of the liver transplant recipient. Helical (or spiral) computed tomography (CT) has theoretical advantages over conventional CT in this application because the entire liver can be imaged in a single breath-hold, limiting inaccuracies related to patient motion and respiratory variation. | lld:pubmed |
