Summary

In lymphedema there is increase in water content of the tissue. We studied a device (MoistureMeterD) which is suitable to detect water contact in the tissue. Although the apparatus is commercially available, no validation study had been performed in vivo with local edema.

We designed a validation study for inter- and intra observer variability and the reproducibility in vivo by histamin induced local edema
