The management of patients undergoing surgical resection for liver malignancies requires a mul-tidisciplinary team, including a dedicated radiologist. In the preoperative workup, the radiologist has to pro-vide precise, relevant information to the surgeon. This requires the radiologist to know the basics of surgical techniques as well as liver surgical anatomy in order to help to avoid unexpected surgical scenarios and com-plications. Moreover, virtual resections and volumetries on radiological images will be discussed, and basic concepts of postoperative liver failure, regeneration, and methods for hypertrophy induction will be provided.

Abstract
The management of patients undergoing surgical resection for liver malignancies requires a mul-tidisciplinary team, including a dedicated radiologist. In the preoperative workup, the radiologist has to pro-vide precise, relevant information to the surgeon. This requires the radiologist to know the basics of surgical techniques as well as liver surgical anatomy in order to help to avoid unexpected surgical scenarios and com-plications. Moreover, virtual resections and volumetries on radiological images will be discussed, and basic concepts of postoperative liver failure, regeneration, and methods for hypertrophy induction will be provided.
