CYSTINURIA CALCULATOR
Influencing the amount and concentration of cystine in the urine plays a central part in the treatment of patients with cystinuria. These values are expressed in different ways by different labs and investigators.
The Cystinuria sheet allows easy conversion between some of the commonly found units. In addition ….
LIVER DOPPLER ULTRASOUND - PULSATILITY IN PORTAL VEIN FLOW
The flow pattern in the portal vein is usually monophasic with a near constant velocity throughout the cardiac cycle. Decreased compliance of the liver vascular bed and/or increases in blood volume flow to the liver lead to enhanced pulsatility in portal vein flow ....
