Core Tip The measurement of portal pressure plays an important role in the evaluation of the progression of liver disease. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound techniques can provide hemodynamic parameters of blood circulation and tissue perfusion. The introduction of the area under the time-intensity curve and intensity at portal/arterial phases parameters has obvious advantages over absolute values, such as peak intensity, as the approach reduces other sources of interference. These parameters were negatively correlated with free portal pressure, supporting the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound as a method to noninvasively estimate portal pressure.
