淋巴水肿是在接受淋巴结清扫+/-放射治疗的癌症患者中常见的常见疾病。传统的治疗方法主要是非手术治疗，效果不理想。在过去，外科治疗依赖于切除技术。最近设计了生理手术来帮助改善这种情况。评估患者并决定为他们提供哪些可用的手术可能具有挑战性。MRI在患者评估和治疗计划中是非常有用的工具。(C)2016 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
Lymphedema is a common condition frequently seen in cancer patients who have had lymph node dissection +/- radiation treatment. Traditional management is mainly non-surgical and unsatisfactory. Surgical treatment has relied on excisional techniques in the past. Physiologic operations have more recently been devised to help improve this condition. Assessing patients and deciding which of the available operations to offer them can be challenging. MRI is an extremely useful tool in patient assessment and treatment planning.
