Overview
Imaging assesses donor organ anatomy and recipient suitability before transplantation. Post transplant imaging monitors complications rejection and vascular issues. Modalities include ultrasound CT MRI and nuclear medicine.
Pre Transplant Evaluation
CT angiography and ultrasound evaluate vascular anatomy and organ quality. Imaging helps plan surgical approach and identify anatomic variants. Accurate assessment reduces perioperative risk.
Post Transplant Surveillance
Ultrasound Doppler monitors graft perfusion and vascular complications. CT and MRI evaluate suspected rejection infection or biliary complications. Nuclear medicine can assess function in select organs.
Interventional Role
Image guided biopsy and drainage procedures manage complications and guide therapy. Timely imaging supports graft salvage and patient outcomes. Multidisciplinary coordination optimizes care.
