In addition to PFV-related abnormalities, DUS occasionally shows "no demonstrable color flow" either at recipient PVs or anastomoses, and indirect Doppler abnormalities such as turbulence, HFPF at graft PVs, and abnormal waveforms at graft HAs in LT recipients with significant PVS. The combination of PFV-related abnormalities and indirect DUS abnormalities would be helpful for diagnosis of PVS.
