AB  - Dear Editor,I read with great interest the review titled ‘Lymphedema and Peripheral Lymphoscintigraphy’ by Mudun A. in Volume 87, Issue 3 of your journal dated July 19, 2024. I would like to thank the author for their valuable contribution to this important topic, which is highly relevant to physicians managing musculoskeletal disorders (1). While the review effectively highlights the significance of advanced imaging modalities, I would like to emphasise the fundamental role of clinical evaluation in the diagnosis of lymphedema from a physiatrist’s perspective.
