Computed tomography measurement of lung volume in preoperative assessment for living donor lung transplantation: Volume calculation using 3D surface rendering in the determination of size compatibility
Pediatric Transplantation, 05/13/09
Camargo JJ et al. - Under FVC formula criteria, all cases were considered compatible. CT volume quantification is an easy to perform, non-invasive technique that uses CT images for the preassessment of candidates for LDLLT, to compare the volume of the lower lobes from the donors with volume of each lung in the prospective recipients. Size matching based on CT densitovolumetry and FVC may differ.
