AI-based body composition score predicts survival after liver transplantation
Based on the results of our study we can conclude that the ratio of visceral fat volume to muscle volume (FVM-ratio) has an essential impact on overall survival after liver transplantation in male and female patients. The fully automated AI based assessment is fast, accurate and investigator independent.
