After appropriate technique to get PWD of suprahepatic Veins.
Look for the 4 classic waves of the tetraphasic spectrum of the hepatic veins (a,S,v,D).

Most of the flow in the hepatic veins is hepatofugal (towards heart).

The spectrum is phasic and predominantly anterograde (towards heart).
The spectrum is phasic and predominantly anterograde (towards heart).
5/ Waves Meaning.
a: Atrial contraction. It's retrograde.

S: Systole causes a suction effect in the right atrium. Most anterograde wave of the cycle.
