Overview

Abdominal CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of portal hypertension. Findings on CT scan suggestive of portal hypertension include re-canalized umbilical vein, dilated portal vein and/or splanchnic veins, esophageal varices, collaterals in any abdominal organ, splenomegaly, and ascites.
