説明
<p>A woman in her sixties with portosystemic shunt and hepatic encephalopathy underwent open mesenteric vein ligation, resulting in improved portal flow and blood ammonia. In this case, 4D flow MRI was a valuable diagnostic and follow-up tool, visualizing and quantifying physiological portal hemodynamics with features distinct from those of contrast-enhanced CT and digital subtraction angiography. Our case study highlights the value of 4D flow MRI for managing portosystemic shunts.</p>
