Lymphatic Imaging Tests a New Technique

A modified interstitial approach uses intradermal contrast injection with rapid digital acquisition.

A porcine pilot study assessed the feasibility and safety of rapid interstitial digital subtraction lymphangiography (DSLA) for visualizing the peripheral lymphatic system. Using intradermal iodinated contrast injection in 30 limbs of 10 pigs, the technique achieved a 97% technical success rate without major complications. Image quality was rated as good in 52% of the cases. Findings indicated significant potential for this method, which was funded by the Ministry of Science, Innovation, and University in Spain, highlighting the ongoing innovation in medical imaging.
