Understanding Lymphatic Function in Early-Stage Lipedema
Manage episode 440130261 series 3393669
In today’s episode, I discuss a study by researchers from Texas and Arizona, published in Obesity in April 2022. The study investigates lymphatic function and anatomy in the early stages of lipedema, prior to the onset of lipo-lymphedema. Using near-infrared fluorescence lymphatic imaging with indocyanine green (ICG), the researchers explore whether lymphatic defects seen in early lymphedema also occur in early-stage lipedema.
