Description
Kun Zhu, Qingchun Fu, and Muyun Liu review progress in measuring portal pressure for a rare liver vessel disorder, in a 2026 article. The disorder, porto-sinusoidal vascular disease, scars small vessels in the liver without causing cirrhosis. Raised pressure in the portal vein often follows, yet the usual vein-pressure test reads too low because the block sits before the sinusoids.
Newer options mix scans and direct checks. Stiffness imaging, CT, and MRI can help separate the disorder from cirrhosis and grade pressure severity. A scope-guided method now measures portal pressure more directly and may sort patients by risk. Lab markers, computer models, and AI tools add further paths to personal risk estimates. The authors favour care guided by several measures together rather than one test alone.
