A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
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

Validation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI Using Perfused Explanted Human Livers

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the feasibility of using perfused explanted human livers for validating intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM). Methods Eight (n = 8) explanted livers from deceased donors were obtained. The portal vein and hepatic artery of each explanted liver were connected to a perfusion system.
