State-of-the-art diagnosis of portal hypertension
EUS-supported portal pressure measurement (EUS-PPM) is one of the most innovative techniques in modern hepatology. It enables direct, safe and extremely accurate measurement of portal pressure - crucial for the diagnosis of portal hypertension.
The examination is particularly important for
- Liver cirrhosis,
- Varices,
- unclear abdominal fluid (ascites),
- and increased risk of bleeding.
