Assessment of a biofluid mechanics-based model for calculating portal pressure in canines [PDF]
Background Portal hypertension is a severe complication caused by various chronic liver diseases. The standard methods for detecting portal hypertension (hepatic venous pressure gradient and free portal pressure) are available in only a few hospitals due
