Description
Estimated cost for Lymphangiography at general public hospitals in China is about ¥560-2000, and at Grade 3A hospitals about ¥800-2500, varying by hospital tier and region.
Main Uses
Lymphangiography is primarily used for diagnosing conditions related to the lymphatic system, including identifying the cause of lymphedema, detecting the spread of cancer (lymph node metastasis), locating lymphatic malformations, and planning surgical interventions involving the lymphatic system. It is also useful in cases where other imaging techniques have failed to provide sufficient information about the lymphatic system's condition.
Normal Range
Lymphangiography does not have a numerical normal range as it is an imaging test. The results are interpreted based on the visualization of the lymphatic system, where a normal result shows unobstructed and properly functioning lymph vessels and nodes without any signs of blockage, leakage, or abnormality.
Low Values - Possible Causes
N/A - Lymphangiography does not produce values that can be categorized as low. It is an imaging technique used to visualize the lymphatic system, and its findings are descriptive rather than quantitative.
High Values - Possible Causes
N/A - Lymphangiography does not produce values that can be categorized as high. Abnormalities detected through this procedure are described in terms of structural or functional issues within the lymphatic system, such as obstructions or leaks, rather than by numerical values.
