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

: The objective of this study was to describe the use of CT volume quantification assessment of candidates for LLDLT. Six pediatric candidates for LDLLT and their donors were investigated with helical chest CT, as part of the preoperative assessment. The CT images were analyzed as per routine and additional post‐processing with CT volume quantification (CT densitovolumetry) was performed to assess volume matching between the lower lobes of the...
