EUS in portal hypertension

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2002
The management of portal hypertension (PHT) and variceal hemorrhage focuses on (1) early detection of PHT, (2) early detection of gastroesophageal varices (GEV), (3) prediction of the risk of bleeding, and (4) monitoring the effects of endoscopic and pharmacologic treatments in reducing the risk of variceal bleeding.1 EUS with its unique combination of
