Imaging the lymphatic system

摘要: Visualization of the lymphatic system is clinically necessary during diagnosis or treatment many conditions and diseases; it used for identifying monitoring lymphedema, detecting metastatic lesions cancer staging locating structures so they can be spared surgical procedures. Imaging anatomy function also plays an important role in experimental studies development function, where spatial resolution accessibility are better. Here, we review technologies visualizing imaging clinical applications. We then describe use systems as well some emerging improving these methodologies.
