Intersegmental vessels: Location____________ appearance__________
Hepatic veins Course btwn the lobes & segments Non-echogenic walls
Intrasegmental vessels: Location____________ appearance__________
Portal triad course to the center of each segment Hyperechoic walls
Fibrofatty sheath of portal triad
Glisson’s capsule
Portal triad
MPV PHA CHD (CBD)
Divides the ant. Segment of the rt lobe from the medial segment of the lt lobe.
Main lobar fissure
Located between the gb neck and the junction of the rt and lt Portal vein.
Main lobar fissure
Divides rt lobe into ant. and post. Segments Landmark is rt hepatic vein
Rt intersegmental fissure
Divides lt lobe into medial and lateral segments Landmark: lt hep vein, ascending pv, FALCIFORM ligament and LIGAMENTUM TERES.
Lt intersegmental fissure
Remnant of ductus venosus Separates lt lobe from caudate
LIGAMENTUM venosum
Remnant of the umbilical vein
LIGAMENTUM TERES
Remnant of the ductus venosus Runs from lt portal v to IVC seep rating lt lobe from caudate lobe
LIGAMENTUM venosum
Direction of fetal circulation
Umbilical v, lt pv, ductus venosus, IVC
Flow towards the liver above the baseline
Hepatopetal (p for positive)
Flow away from the liver ( below the baseline )
Hepatofugal ( to flee)
Waveform toward liver with mild undulations
Low-velocity continuous flow
Portal triad
MPV, proper hep art, common hepatic duct
Hepatic vein waveforms are typically _______ reflecting rt atrial filling! contraction and relaxation.
Triphasic
Proper hepatic art runs parallel to the _____
MPV
Rt hep art (replaced) originates from the ______ and seen posterior to__________.
SMA MPV
Hepatic art waveform demonstrates flow in diastole indicating a _________system
Low-resistance
In a post liver tx a _________( no diastole) hep art waveform may suggest organ rejection.
High resistance
Parvus tardus hep art waveform suggests anatomic stenosis at Prox, mid , or dist
Proximal
Parasitic infection associated with sheep and cattle raising countries. Larvae hatch in portal system and move into the liver.
Echinococcal cyst ( hydatid disease)
Presents as a cyst within a cyst( water lily sign) and assoc. with anaphylactic shock
