A simple method of lymphography of the thoracic duct was investigated. Using three female beagles, contrast media were administered rectally, vaginally and into the perianal tissue. The administration sites were gently massaged, and imaging was carried out at constant intervals using computed tomography and radiograph. Moreover, Indian ink was administered into the rectum mucous membrane in dogs for proof of this method of lymphography, and the lymph drainage routes were observed. The investigation showed that clear computed tomography and radiographic contrast images of the thoracic duct were obtained by subcutaneous and submucosa injection of angiography contrast medium and 3D processing of these images revealed the three-dimensional positions and course of the thoracic duct and cisterna chyli.
研究了一种简单的胸导管淋巴造影方法。使用三只雌性比格犬，将造影剂经直肠、阴道和肛周组织给药。对给药部位进行轻柔按摩，并使用计算机断层扫描和X射线摄影以固定间隔进行成像。此外，向犬的直肠黏膜注射印度墨水以验证这种淋巴造影方法，并观察淋巴引流途径。研究表明，通过皮下和黏膜下注射血管造影剂可获得清晰的胸导管计算机断层扫描和X射线造影图像，对这些图像进行三维处理可揭示胸导管和乳糜池的三维位置和走行。
