An image based model of fluid flow through lymph nodes
The lymphatic system returns fluid to the blood stream from the tissues to maintain tissue fluid homeostasis. Lymph nodes distributed throughout the system filter the lymphatic fluid. The afferent and efferent lymph flow conditions of lymph nodes can be measured in experiments, however it is difficu...
