The following findings may be present (7.) dilation of the portal vein (> 1.5 cm), (2.) calibre leap between the extra-and intrahepatic segments of the portal vein in the porta hepatis (so-called portal vein amputation), (3.) dilation of the splenic vein (>1.5 cm), (4.) widening of the hep-... [Pg.130]
