Introduction
彩超显示入肝血流表示肝门静脉可以看到血流信号，Patient生理状态正常，这种现象属于正常的Examination结果，没必要引起过度的担心，如果经过Examination没有其他身体的不适，Patient通常可以放心，Patient在生活中应该注意作息规律，避免过度劳累。
Under normal circumstances, color Doppler ultrasound showing hepatic inflow indicates a normal examination finding, and there is generally no need for excessive concern. The details are as follows:
The volume of blood flowing through the liver via the hepatic artery and portal vein within a given time period is known as hepatic blood flow. In medicine, high-frequency constant weak electrical current is passed through the liver to measure tissue impedance. Changes in hepatic blood flow are then assessed by analyzing waveform patterns using color Doppler ultrasound. These changes do not represent actual quantitative values of liver blood flow, but the measurement itself helps evaluate the extent of liver disease. The observation of hepatic inflow on color ultrasound means that blood flow signals are visible in the portal vein, indicating the patient's physiological status is normal. This phenomenon is considered a normal imaging result and does not require undue worry. If no other physical discomfort is present upon examination, patients can usually be reassured. However, if symptoms such as stomach discomfort or dizziness exist, further evaluation under medical supervision is necessary, and comprehensive treatment should be based on the overall findings.
In summary, color Doppler ultrasound showing hepatic inflow is a normal examination result. Patients should maintain regular作息 (daily routines), and avoid excessive fatigue in daily life.
