Core Tip |
Liver transplantation stands as a beacon of hope for individuals battling end-stage liver disease, offering the promise of extended life and improved quality of life. However, behind the lifesaving potential of this procedure lies intricate ethical considerations that demand careful examination. In this article, we delve into the multifaceted ethical issues surrounding liver transplantation, exploring the allocation of scarce resources, the challenges of organ procurement and distribution, transplant tourism, and the implications of emerging technologies. As the use of artificial intelligence grows, we also explore its potential role in liver transplantation as well as the ethical issues that accompany it. |
