The hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) has been employed as the gold standard for indicating the portal venous pressure gradient (PPG) in the diagnosis of portal hypertension (PHT). However, little has been reported on whether the HVPG can accurately estimate the PPG in patients with hepatic ve...
