title: [Echographic evaluation of portal flow].
abstract: Authors analyze clinical possibilities offered by the combination of pulsed Doppler/B mode in automatic ultrasound equipment in evaluating portal vein flow. In 60% of cases the system gave informations about flow in right (452 +/- 21 cm3/min) and in left (348 +/- 27 cm3/min) portal vein branches. Measurement failure causes and methods to avoid them are discussed.
