Microwave lymphedema assessment using deep learning with contour assisted backprojection [PDF]
We present a method for early detection of lymphatic fluid accumulation in lymphedema patients based on microwave imaging of the limb volume across an air gap. The proposed algorithm uses contour information of the imaged limb surface to approximate the wave propagation velocity locally to solve the eikonal equation for implementing the adjoint imaging

Exercise‐Induced Cardiac Lymphatic Remodeling Mitigates Inflammation in the Aging Heart
Aging Cell, EarlyView.Exercise improves cardiac lymphatic architecture and function in the aged mouse. Aged hearts show reduced lymphatic vascular density, more dilated vessels, and increased peri‐lymphatic inflammation and fibrosis. Exercise training of the aged mouse increases lymph vessel density and sprouting, reverses their dilation, reduces inflammation and fibrosis ...

Entrainment of Lymphatic Contraction to Oscillatory Flow [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Lymphedema, a disfiguring condition characterized by the asymmetrical swelling of the limbs, is suspected to be caused by dysfunctions in the lymphatic system. Lymphangions, the spontaneously contracting units of the lymphatic system, are sensitive to luminal wall shear stress. In this study, the response of the lymphangions to dynamically varying wall

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Stage II endometrial cancer comprises 5% to 10% of cases and is pathologically diverse. Retrospective data guides recommendations which suggest surgical staging with adjuvant therapy, but the role of radical surgery and lymphadenectomy is uncertain, due to conflicting outcomes.
