Accurate preoperative graft volume assessment is crucial for successful living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Although manual and automated computed tomography (CT) volume measurement methods using various volumetric tools are widely used, their accuracy remains uncertain. This study aimed to determine the optimal dry weight correction factor for each method to enhance the prediction of actual graft weight (AGW) and compare the accuracy of different methods.
This study is a retrospective diagnostic accuracy study comparing three liver volumetry methods using preoperative donor CT scans in LDLT.

| Accuracy of preoperative estimated graft volume (EGV) compared to actual graft weight (AGW) | The accuracy of preoperative donor CT liver volumetry will be assessed by comparing estimated graft volume (EGV) obtained from three methods (automated, semi-automated, manual) with the actual graft weight (AGW) measured intraoperatively. The error ratio between EGV and AGW will be calculated for each method. | From preoperative CT scan (1-2 months before transplantation) to intraoperative measurement (day of transplantation) |

| Determination of the optimal dry weight correction factor for each volumetry method | The study aims to determine the optimal dry weight correction factor by minimizing the discrepancy between EGV and AGW. | From preoperative CT scan (1-2 months before transplantation) to intraoperative measurement (day of transplantation) |
