 This study demonstrated while all three modalities are able to provide good information, the sensitivity may alter as the severity of lymphedema progresses. The HFCDU will provide the best detection for lymphatic vessels throughout all stages of lymphedema. However, as each modality provides different and unique information, combining and evaluating the data according to the stage of lymphedema will be able to maximize the chance for a successful surgical outcome.
