This
book provides important new data on the lymphatic system, its
embryological development, anatomy, the Sentinel Node Concept (SNC) and
the Sentinel Node Procedure (SNP) and cross-sectional topography of the
lymph nodes (LN). New data concerning therapy strategy based on the
sentinel node procedure and lymphadenectomy for skin, head and neck,
lung, breast, and prostate cancers as well as rectal cancer are
presented. Data on the cross-section topography of the LN based on the
dataset of the "Visible Human" (VH) male and female constitute an
important part of this book. The visualisation of the LN in
cross-sections is of importance for correct target volume delineation
and made a standardisation of contouring possible.
