Fig. 1. Line graph shows changes in arterial blood flow velocity after portal vein embolization. Values are expressed as mean with standard error (vertical bars). {circ} = common hepatic artery, [UNK] = right hepatic artery, {triangleup} = left hepatic artery, * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, {dagger} = p < 0.0001 versus value before embolization (by Wilcoxon's signed rank test).

Fig. 2. Line graph shows changes in arterial resistive index after portal vein embolization. Values are expressed as mean with standard error (vertical bars). {circ} = common hepatic artery, [UNK] = right hepatic artery, {triangleup} = left hepatic artery, * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, {dagger} = p < 0.0001 versus value before embolization (by Wilcoxon's signed rank test).

Fig. 3. Scatterplot shows correlation between increases in flow velocity in right and common hepatic arteries. Increase in flow velocity was defined as velocity on day 1 after embolization divided by velocity before embolization. y = 0.708 + 1.006x (r = 0.514, p < 0.05).

Fig. 4. Scatterplot shows correlation between atrophy rate of right hepatic lobe and increase in flow velocity in right hepatic artery. Increase in flow velocity was defined as velocity on day 1 after embolization divided by velocity before embolization. y = 0.157 + 3.761x (r = 0.700, p < 0.0005).
