Lymph reenters the venous circulation through the subclavian veins near the base of the neck. This junction is where lymphatic vessels empty into the bloodstream, allowing lymph fluid to return to the circulatory system.
What is the key difference in the circulation systems of blood and the lymph?
Blood flow is most noticeably different in that it is driven by a central pump: the heart. The blood goes from the heart --> arteries --> arterioles (small arteries) --> capillaries --> venules (small veins) --> veins --> Heart --> Lungs --> Heart --> Arteries (and so on). Lymph flow on the other hand is driven by passive flow through lymph vessels. The capillaries (see above) are fenestrated, which means they have microscopic holes in them. These holes allow a fluid ultrafiltrate from the blood to pass out into the different tissues. This ultrafiltrate is mixed with waste-products from cells and and other pathogens - and this makes up the basic substances in lymph fluid. The lymph fluid is then gathered by open ended lymphvessels, which transport the lymph towards the center of the body.
What is lymph in hematology test?

Does lymph have its own circulation?
Yes. There is some controversy as to how it moves, but most experts agree that skeletal muscle movement plays a major role in the movement of lymphatic fluid. The two main areas of lymph flow are from the right upper quadrant of the body into the right lymphatic duct which drains into the right subclavian vein. The rest of the body, including the legs flow into the thoracic duct which drains into the left subclavian vein.
