Lymphatic Vessel Invasion in Routine Pathology Reports of Papillary Thyroid Cancer
Frontiers in Medicine, 2022 PurposeIt is not mandatory to report lymphatic vessel invasion in pathology reports of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) according to the current Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM (tumor, nodes, and metastases) classification. However, there

Lymphatic Vessels at the Heart of the Matter [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2015 Emergent research in the past decades has brought to light the importance of lymphatic vessels in tissue homeostasis, immunity, metabolism, and inflammation. In Nature, Klotz et al. (2015) demonstrate that cardiac lymphatics have a unique ontology compared to visceral lymphatics and that promoting their growth can improve cardiac function following ...

Lymphatic vascular response to acute inflammation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 During acute inflammation, functioning lymphatics are believed to reduce edema and to provide a transiting route for immune cells, but the extent at which the dermal lymphatic remodeling impacts lymphatic transport or the factors regulating these changes

A 1D-0D-3D coupled model for simulating blood flow and transport processes in breast tissue [PDF]
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical
Engineering 38 (2022) e3612, 2022 In this work, we present mixed dimensional models for simulating blood flow and transport processes in breast tissue and the vascular tree supplying it. These processes are considered, to start from the aortic inlet to the capillaries and tissue of the breast.
