“Diagnostic accuracy of bioimpedance spectroscopy in patients with lymphedema - a retrospective cohort analysis”

Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is used by healthcare specialists to diagnose lymphedema. BIS measures limb fluid content by assessing tissue resistance to the flow of electric current. However, there is debate regarding the validity of BIS in diagnosing early lymphedema. Indocyanine green (ICG) lymphography has been established as the most accurate diagnostic modality to date for lymphedema diagnosis. In this retrospective study, we test the sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of BIS in diagnosing lymphedema by referencing its results with ICG lymphography.
