Core Tip Multi-slice spiral computed tomography (CT) perfusion imaging can predict the occurrence of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension. This study found that gastric coronary vein diameter, number of vascular cross-sections, and vascular area were significantly correlated with the occurrence of bleeding. The vascular area had the best predictive value, with an area under the curve of 0.831. These findings suggest that multi-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging can be a useful tool for early identification of high-risk patients and prompt management to prevent or manage bleeding events in patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension.
