Researchers are developing new MRI imaging methods to better understand and measure lymphedema—arm swelling that can develop after breast cancer surgery. This trial involves scanning participants before and after a surgical treatment called lymphovenous anastomosis to see how well the new imaging techniques can show improvement.
Currently, doctors don't have reliable imaging tools to precisely measure lymphedema severity or track how well treatments are working. This trial aims to create better MRI methods so doctors can more accurately monitor this condition and predict which treatments will help patients most.

You would receive MRI scans of your arm before and after undergoing lymphovenous anastomosis surgery. The researchers will use new imaging techniques to measure your lymphedema and track how it changes after treatment. You'll return for follow-up scans and visits so doctors can monitor your progress over time and gather information to improve these imaging methods for future patients.
