Abstract
The appearance of the normal postsurgical liver and of potential complications specific to the type of liver resection performed (partial hepatectomy, cyst fenestration, RF ablation) must be well known by radiologists for early detection and treatment of postoperative complications. Early postoperative imaging of the liver aims at detecting vascular, biliary and extrahepatic complications and relies mainly on Doppler US and CT.
