Lymphoscintigraphy As an Imaging Modality in Lymphatic System

Lymphedema is a chronic debilitating disease that results from chronic lymphatic insufficiency. Lymphoscintigraphy forms an authentic yet simple diagnostic and screening procedure in patients with preclinical and clinical lymphedema of different etiologies. Our study population consisted of 540 patients with diagnosed lymphedema of different etiologies and grading. Here we highlight our experience of lymphoscintigraphy in different clinical situations and staging of lymphedema. Lymphoscintigraphy is a simple, noninvasive procedure, which documents clinical diagnosis and guides the management of Lymphedema
