Significance of a postenhancement computed tomography findings in liver cirrhosis: In view of hemodynamics

Abstract

We observed a significant sign in postenhancement computed tomography of liver cirrhosis, that is visualization of portal venous branches. During postenhancement computed tomography scanning of liver, the portal vein can not be identified in liver parenchyme in 84% of patients without known cirrhosis (including chronic active hepatitis). The two have the same hemodynamic changes in that there is diffuse fibrosis and resultant decrease in vascular bed. Visualization of intrahepatic portal branches in postenhancement computed tomography is because of decreased diffusion ability and portal hypertension.
