Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Contemporary management of lymphatic diseases is undergoing rapid transformation, propelled by advances in molecular biology, diagnostic imaging, and minimally invasive therapies. This Special Issue brings together multidisciplinary expertise to present clinically relevant advances in the field. The scope encompasses pathophysiology, clinical assessment, and innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for lymphatic system disorders. Specific areas of focus include biological and hemodynamic principles underlying complex lymphatic diseases, clinical evaluation and management approaches for lymphedema, advanced imaging techniques, and current interventional and surgical treatments. By integrating multiple disciplinary perspectives, this Special Issue aims to advance precision medicine in lymphatic disease management and bridge clinical practice with scientific innovation.
