Abstract |
Portal blood flow was measured with pulsed doppler ultrasound in thirty normal dogs. In normal dogs, the average portal blood flow velocity was $17.03{pm}1.75cm/sec$ and the average portal blood flow was $41.59{pm}10.10ml/min/kg$. The incident angle between the doppler beam and the portal vein averaged $65^{circ}$. The average portal vein sectional area was $0.41{pm}0.14cm^2$. The Congestion index was $0.0245{pm}0.0081cm{cdot}sec$. Conclusively, the spectral doppler ultrasonography was quick, non-invasive and simple diagnostic method in circulatory disorders of liver. |
