Abstract:
Liver transplantation has become a standard treatment for end-stage liver disease, with survival rates for liver transplant patients increasing steadily. Several imaging techniques are used to evaluate patients for possible complications of liver transplantation. This article focuses on the role of ultrasound and color flow and spectral Doppler in evaluating complications such as fluid collections and vascular or biliary obstructions.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
