The various elements used in assessing the lymphedema patient are presented. These include the History and Physical examination and the various measurements that include limb circumference, limb volume, and bio-impedence spectroscopy. In addition, the different imaging techniques used to assess the lymphatic system are discussed. Finally, a treatment algorithm is presented for the treatment of the lymphedema patient.
