Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a rare pulmonary vascular complication of chronic liver disease characterized by dilatation of pulmonary capillaries leading to vascular shunting and systemic hypoxemia. Diagnosis of HPS requires documentation of intrapulmonary vasodilation (IPVD), the two most common imaging studies performed for the detection of IPVD include transthoracic contrast echocardiography (TTCE) and 99m-Tc-macroaggregated albumin scintigraphy (99mTc-MAA scan). TTCE has high sensitivity and thus, is the preferred initial investigation, while 99mTc-MAA scan is highly specific and plays an adjuvant role in diagnosis.
