AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH, 84(4).
MeSH headings : Horses; Animals; Lymphoscintigraphy / veterinary; Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid; Lymph Nodes; Lymphedema / diagnostic imaging; Lymphedema / therapy; Lymphedema / veterinary; Forelimb / diagnostic imaging; Radiopharmaceuticals; Horse Diseases / pathology
TL;DR:
Pneumatic compression therapy as provided by an equine-specific device encouraged lymphatic flow in healthy, nonedematous equine forelimbs and data support further study of the EQ Press for pneumatic compressor therapy in horses clinically affected by lymphedema and lymphatic drainage disorders.
