ReviewMRI of the Central Lymphatic System: Indications, Imaging Technique, and Pre-Procedural Planning.

Advances in magnetic resonance (MR) software and hardware allow improved visualization of lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels. We describe how MR lymphangiography can be used to diagnose central lymphatic system anatomy and pathology, which can be used for diagnostic purposes or for pre-procedural planning.
