“…Clinically apparent LE presents as visible or palpable tissue swelling, and diagnostic criteria for subclinical LE included a volume increase ‡ 3% in the affected upper limb measured by the Perometer compared with the patient's preoperative measurement and, with consideration of the contralateral limb volume changes or bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS), uses resistance to low-frequency electrical current within the extracellular fluid compartment of limbs in order to determine volume differences. [12][13][14][15] The goal of timely intervention for breast cancer-related LE is decreased edema, smaller limbs, reduced joint aches, muscle pain and tightness, decreased infection rates, heightened patient desire to continue treatment, decreased medical costs, and improved quality of life. 6,[13][14][15] Various methods have been described to measure limb volume after the development of breast cancer-related clinical LE.…”
