Lymphatic System.The lymphatic system is found in all regions of the body and instantly responds to homeostatic changes. By carefully examining the regional lymphatics, a physician can receive valuable feedback as to where to hunt for dysfunction on many levels. A number of osteopathic physicians, most notably F.P. Millard, DO, author of the text Applied Anatomy of the Lymphatics, and one of his students, Gordon Zink, DO, have contributed to our clinical understanding in this field. Dr. Millard developed a quick total-body lymphatic screen that the experienced clinician may complete in 2 to 3 minutes
