A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome
Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) is characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction from the hepatic veins to the junction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium. Ultrasound (US) and CT venography (CTV) are used as imaging techniques for the diagnosis of BCS, and We compared the diagnostic efficacy of the two modalities. The results showed that
