Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound reduces lymphedema by regulating macrophage polarization and enhancing microcirculation
Background: Conventional therapies reduce lymphedema but do not cure it because they cannot modulate the pathophysiology of secondary lymphedema. Lymphedema is characterized by inflammation. We hypothesized that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) treatment could reduce lymphedema by enhancing a...
