FAQs

What is MRI Lymphangiography?

MRI Lymphangiography is an advanced MRI examination that provides detailed imaging of the lymphatic system, including lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, and lymphatic drainage pathways, helping diagnose disorders affecting lymph flow.

Why is MRI Lymphangiography performed?

This examination is performed to evaluate lymphedema (chronic swelling due to lymphatic blockage), lymphatic vessel abnormalities, lymphatic leaks, chylous leaks, congenital lymphatic malformations, unexplained limb swelling, postoperative lymphatic complications, and lymphatic obstruction caused by tumors or other conditions.

Can MRI Lymphangiography diagnose lymphedema?

Yes. MRI Lymphangiography helps assess lymphatic vessel structure and drainage patterns, supporting diagnosis and evaluation of lymphedema and its severity.

How is MRI Lymphangiography different from conventional MRI?

A conventional MRI evaluates general anatomy such as muscles, organs, and soft tissues, whereas MRI Lymphangiography uses specialized techniques focused on visualizing lymphatic vessels and lymph flow pathways.

Can MRI Lymphangiography detect lymphatic obstruction due to cancer?

Yes. It can help evaluate lymphatic abnormalities caused by tumors, enlarged lymph nodes, surgery, radiation therapy, or other conditions affecting lymphatic drainage.
