Ultrasound Characteristics of Budd-Chiari Syndrome - A Multi-Centre Analysis
This first multinational ultrasound series in BCS delineates reproducible hallmarks-hepatic vein thrombosis, extensive collaterals and caudate enlargement-and highlights geographic phenotypes. Harmonised ultrasound protocols therefore constitute a pivotal step toward earlier diagnosis, consistent classification and improved outcomes in this uncommon yet life‑threatening disorder.
