%X The acceptance of livers of limited quality has been the predominant way to increase the donor pool in recent years. Unfortunately, this practice increases the risk afflicted with the procedure, because these organs are more prone to preservation induced injury and ultimately allograft damage and dysfunction. Accordingly, morbidity and mortality are increased in the context of marginal liver allografts,1 and the evaluation of potential allografts for suitability for transplantation at the end of the preservation period becomes pivotal. Traditional methods include gross inspection, liver histology, and analysis of donor risk factors and fail to give precise insights to the expectable allograft damage and dysfunction
