Magnetic Resonance Lymphangiography of the Central Lymphatic System: Technique and Clinical Applications

Abstract: Magnetic resonance lymphangiography (MRL) is a noninvasive imaging technique that can be used in the management of lymphatic disorders to delineate the central lymphatic system for treatment planning. This article reviews the MRL technique, its advantages, limitations, indications, and impact on patient management.Level of Evidence 5Technical Efficacy Stage 3J. MAGN. RESON.

“…13 MR lymphography with and without contrast is a promising method providing good imaging and planning but rigorous assessment of the examination, availability, and interpretation expertise is lacking. 14,15 Diagnostic algorithm for chronic lower extremity swelling A practical diagnostic approach based on the concepts discussed above is illustrated in Figure 1. If there are no identified systemic causes or if there is no improvement or partial improvement following management of defined systemic causes, a more comprehensive evaluation for underlying primary or secondary causes is undertaken using the logic discussed in the prior sections.…”
