Lymphedema (LE) may be a complication following surgical resection and radiation treatment in a number of cancer types, and is especially debilitating in regions where treatment options are limited. While upper and lower extremity LE may be effectively treated with manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) therapies and devices that use compression to direct proximal flow of lymph, head and neck LE is more challenging. Herein, we describe the compassionate use of an investigatory technique of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging to understand the lymphatic anatomy and function, help direct MLD, and use 3D surface profilometry to monitor response to therapy in a subject suffering head and neck LE following surgery and radiation treatment. NIR fluorescence imaging provides a mapping of functional lymph vessels for direction of efficient MLD therapy in the head and neck. Additional studies are needed to assess efficacy of MLD therapy when directed by NIR fluorescence imaging.
