    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to determine whether an immediate change occurs in the blood flow distribution in hepatic segments after segmental portal vein embolization. CONCLUSION: We found an immediate change in the distribution of blood flow in the liver after embolization; with portal vein embolization, we found an immediate increase in the hepatic artery blood flow in the affected segments.
