Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients requiring evaluation of blood flow in the portal venous region. Specifically, patients with hepatic dysfunction or patients who require evaluation before and after treatment. Adult patients who understand the study and have given written consent.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients who have difficulty with MRI imaging, such as claustrophobia or implantation of non-MRI compatible metal devices. For contrast studies, patients with contrast allergy or renal insufficiency.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
For liver transplant donors and recipients, liver volume increase at 3 months postoperatively (increased portal venous blood flow/wall shear stress postoperatively as an exposure/predictor); for cases of portal vein thrombus (RRT value of the main trunk of the portal vein as an exposure/predictor); and for hepatic encephalopathy, improvement of hepatic encephalopathy after transcatheter portal collateral embolization (increased liver blood flow and changes in blood flow from the superior mesenteric vein into the portal vein due to portosystemic shunt embolization as exposure/predictor) will be evaluated.
