Evaluation of hepatic fibrosis with portal pressure gradient in rats [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2009 AbstractMRI has the potential of providing a noninvasive assessment of liver pathology. This work introduces a portal pressure gradient (PPG) model derived from fluid mechanics, where the PPG is proportional to the average velocity and inversely proportional to the vessel area in the upper part of portal vein.

National Consensus on Portal Hypertension Management in Indonesia
Acta Medica Indonesiana, 2022 Portal hypertension is a clinical syndrome that consists of hypersplenism, ascites, gastroesophageal varices, and encephalopathy. This condition is marked by increased portal pressure gradient and may occur with or without liver cirrhosis.
