Morphologic changes in hepatitis virus-related liver cirrhosis: Relationship to hemodynamics of portal vein on dynamic contrast-enhanced CT

The morphologic changes in the compensated stage of liver cirrhosis (cLC) are not diffuse atrophic changes. With cLC lobar or segmental changes combined with atrophy of the right lobe and medial segment together with hypertrophy of the caudate lobe and lateral segment are commonly seen. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the morphologic changes in hepatitis virus-related liver cirrhosis in relationship to haemodynamics of the portal vein on dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT)
