Currently, intraoperative cholangiography using a radio-opaque contrast medium is widely used for visualizing the biliary tract before donor hepatectomy in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). However, radiation exposure and adverse reactions to intravenous iodinated contrast have limited its
