Improving Patient Experience in Radiology: Impact of a Multifaceted Intervention on National Ranking.

abstract：:Pedal lymphography was performed without the use of vital dyes in 510 patients. Lymphatic vessels were still readily identifiable by this method, due to their transparency, clarity, elasticity, distensibility, and characteristic branching pattern. Procedure time was shortened by 10-15 minutes without compromising the ...
