Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Living Liver Donors and Its Relationship With Post Operative Recipient Biliary Complications
India100 participantsStarted 2025-07-01
Plain-language summary
Living donor liver transplantation is widely accepted as an life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage liver diseases. Careful donor selection is essential to maximize the success and minimize the risk of postoperative complications in donors and recipients. Mapping of biliary anatomy is one of the critical assessments for donor selection and surgical planning ,Biliary reconstruction is considered as the "Achilles heel" of liver transplantation and adequate imaging assessment of biliary anatomy can largely benefit the biliary anastomosis. Preoperative imaging assessment of biliary anatomy is good for the selection of donors but may not indispensable for surgical planning and Intraoperative confirmative assessment of biliary anatomy with IOC was essential

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
To identify factors causing early biliary complications like type and number of arterial & biliary reconstruction, type of graft, number & size of Bile ducts in donor in both groups
