Abstract Intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) in hepatobiliary surgery is well known as an essential tool for radical and safe hepatectomies, allowing to perform parenchymal sparing surgery and, as consequence, to expand the surgical indications for patients otherwise considered unresectable. Nevertheless, since many years, despite its effectiveness in the study of vascular anatomy of the liver, the gold standard for the assessment of biliary anatomy during surgery is intraoperative cholangiography (IOC), which is used for the validation of preoperative imaging as well as for guiding reconstruction in case of bile duct injury or resection.
