Variability of splanchnic blood flow measurements using MR velocity mapping under fasting and post-prandial conditions - comparison with echo-Doppler

Background/Aims: The aim was to study the reproducibility of magnetic resonance velocity mapping, when measuring portal vein and superior mesenteric artery blood flow, under fasting and post-prandial conditions. Magnetic resonance flow measurements for the portal vein were compared with echo-Doppler measurements in the right portal vein.
