Changes of thoracic duct flow and morphology in an animal model of elevated central venous pressure

Objective: Investigation of lymph fluid dynamics in thoracic duct during central venous pressure elevation.Background: Lymphatic flow is affected by elevated central venous pressure (CVP) in congestive heart failure. The changes of thoracic duct (TD) lymph flow have not been studied chronically in t...
