More on Breast Cancer-Related-Edema

Course overview

This course will build upon the concepts introduced in Part One, including the pathology of breast cancer related edema and evidence on current treatment options. Identifying "transient edemas" and their treatment will be discussed. A subset of techniques, including manual lymphatic therapy, multi-layer bandaging, and intermittent pneumatic compression will be explored further and will be demonstrated. Emphasis will be placed on adapting treatment applications based on the presentation of the edema.
