An anatomically grounded human-scale dynamic model of contraction-driven lymphatic pumping
Chia-Feng Chang, Ayemon Baraka, Egor Sidorov +1
Lymphangions, the valved muscular segments of lymphatic vessels, pump lymph against an adverse pressure gradient. Current models resolve this pumping in one vessel, a short chain o…

An anatomically grounded human-scale steady hydraulic model of the lymphatic network
Chia-Feng Chang, Ayemon Baraka, Egor Sidorov +1
The lymphatic system returns 2 to 3 L of interstitial fluid per day to the venous circulation and drains the central nervous system. Most models of lymph transport describe one lym…
