Imaging Diagnosis of Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis

Figure 4

Noncontrast-enhanced axial CT scan image showing a diffusely hypodense liver in this patient with acute thrombosis of all the three hepatic veins. On careful inspection, the right and middle hepatic veins can be made out as mildly hyperdense structures (arrows) on the background of this hypodense liver. Ascites can also be seen on this section (asterisk).
