The efficacy of preoperative mapping of perforators in reducing operative times and complications in perforator flap breast reconstruction
Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 06/17/09

Uppal RS et al. - Preoperative mapping of perforators can reduce operative times as well as allowing the selection of the most reliable perforators beforehand. Good flap perfusion is assured which leads to reduced length of stay as well as fewer complications such as postoperative fat necrosis and delayed healing. Although both CT and Duplex perforator mapping can reduce operative times, this study found that operative times were reduced more after CT scanning was introduced.
