Doppler Assessment of Hepatic Venous Waves for Predicting Large Varices in Cirrhotic Patients

BACKGROUND/AIM: Color Doppler examination of changes in hepatic venous waveforms is being evaluated as a means of prediction of severity of portal hypertension and presence of esophageal varices. Normal hepatic venous waveform shows a triphasic pattern. In cirrhosis, this pattern changes to a biphas...
