It is therefore important that timely and easily diagnosing PH has relevant prognostic and therapeutic implications. The current gold standard to evaluate PH is by hepatic …
Ultrasound With Subharmonic Imaging and Subharmonic Aided Pressure Estimation (SHAPE) to Identify Portal Hypertension
This clinical trial tests the how well an ultrasound with subharmonic imaging and the subharmonic aided pressure estimation (SHAPE) technique works in identifying portal hypertension (PH). An ultrasound takes pictures of the inside of the body by bouncing sound waves off organs. PH is high blood pressure in the vein …
