Flow competition between hepatic arterial and portal venous flow during hypothermic machine perfusion preservation of porcine livers [PDF]
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is regarded as a better preservation method for donor livers than cold storage. During HMP, livers are perfused through the inlet blood vessels, namely the hepatic artery (HA) and the portal vein (PO.
