High-resolution multifrequency MRE based on MDEV
inversion was applied to patients with portal
hypertension before and after TIPS placement. The
magnitude shear moduli |

|of liver
and spleen were both sensitive to the portal
decompression following TIPS. The observed linear
correlation between spleen viscoelasticity and HVPG
raises the prospect of an image-based and noninvasive
assessment of portal pressure by MR elastography in the
follow-up of TIPS placements.
