Indirect magnetic resonance lymphangiography in patients with lymphedema: preliminary results in humans
C Lohrmann, E Foeldi, M Langer - European journal of radiology, 2006 - Elsevier
PURPOSE: To assess the feasibility of indirect magnetic resonance (MR) lymphangiography
with intracutaneous injection of gadodiamide, a commercially available, non-ionic,
extracellular paramagnetic contrast agent for the detection of lymphatic vessels in patients
with lymphedema. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In 2005, three patients with lymphedema
of the lower extremities (1 primary, 2 secondary) were referred by the Foeldi Clinic for
Lymphology for indirect magnetic resonance lymphangiography. 4.5 mL of gadodiamide …
