Visualising lymphatic flow dynamics during complex physical therapy: A photoacoustic imaging study
Our findings underscore the potential of PAI in elucidating the mechanisms underlying the efficacy of CPT. PAI may enable comprehensive assessments of vascular changes during CPT by allowing simultaneous delineation of veins and lymphatic vessels. While our study represents a significant step forward, its limitations, including small sample size and exercise regimen specificity, warrant further investigations.
