In this double-episode, Dr James Maurice interviews Dr Dhiraj Tripathi, Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, about the UK Adult Liver Transplantation guidelines recently published in Frontline Gastroenterology. In the first part, they discuss a general overview of liver transplantation in the UK, followed by the selection and workup of potential liver transplant recipients.

Look out for the second part in the next few days. The conversation moves on to recent developments in organ allocation and utilisation, and post-transplant care.
