Abstract

Objective: to evaluate the prospects and role of the methods of imaging (ultrasound and CT) in the diagnosis of the pathogenic aspects of the development and correction of portal hypertension in liver cirrhosis. Material and methods. Patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension, Doppler ultrasound, multislice computed tomography. Conclusion. The combined use of ultrasound and computed tomography facilitates tracing of the dynamics of the disclosure of portocaval anastomoses and predict the course of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension. The application of the integrated ultrasound to determine the rate of blood flow volume in vessels of portal system and portocaval anastomosis will enable development of differential diagnostic criteria for the early diagnosis of portal hypertension. The detection of recanalized umbilical vein by means of 3D-visualization of its anatomy makes it possible to use it for delivering of therapeutic agents to the liver in its pathology.
