Core Tip |
The degree of macrovesicular steatosis (MS) is intimately related to the viability of the liver graft, which in turn is crucial to the success of the liver transplant operation. The development of an accurate, non-invasive, easy-to-use, handheld, real-time device for quantification of MS would fill a lacuna in the deceased donor selection process. We present the hypothesis, design and proof-of-concept study for a novel handheld device for real-time quantification of MS. |
