FAQs

1

Is portal hypertension seen on ultrasound?

Splenomegaly, ascites, and anatomy of intra- and extrahepatic portal vessels can reliably be detected by ultrasound in case of portal hypertension. The increased diameter of the portal vein and its roots is a not sufficient sensitive and specific finding in portal hypertension.

How does ultrasound measure portal vein pressure?

The portal venous pressure can be measured directly using either a transjugular approach to the portal vein via the hepatic veins, or by puncture of the portal vein through a percutaneous transhepatic route under ultrasound guidance. A catheter is then passed over a guidewire into the main portal vein.
