Splenoportal Axis Doppler

Splenoportal axis Doppler is a diagnostic imaging technique used to assess blood flow in the splenic vein and portal vein, collectively known as the splenoportal axis. It utilizes Doppler ultrasound technology to measure the speed, direction, and pattern of blood flow within these vessels. This imaging modality is commonly employed to evaluate conditions such as portal hypertension, liver cirrhosis, portal vein thrombosis, and splenic vein thrombosis. Splenoportal axis Doppler provides valuable information for healthcare providers to assess vascular health, diagnose vascular disorders affecting the liver and spleen, and guide treatment decisions.
