Summary

In this procedure, the provider performs imaging supervision and interpretation of hepatic venography after injection of contrast material through a wedged or free catheter in the hepatic vein to visualize the structure. He also performs a hemodynamic evaluation, which provides a clear picture of blood pressure, blood flow, and how well the body transports oxygen in the blood to body tissues.
