Summary

Portal hypertension is a major complication of cirrhosis. HVPG is the diagnostic gold standard but is invasive. Non-invasive tools such as spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) and CEUS show promise for assessing CSPH, though they have not yet been compared directly. A multimodal ultrasound approach may provide a reliable alternative to HVPG.
