Would u say capillary oncotic pressure is the samething as plasma colloid osmotic pressure?

Why does arteriolar constriction decrease edema?

oncotic pressure and colloidal osmotic pressure are same.

Arteriolar constriction causes decreased flow to capillaries so decreased hrdroststic pressure so no edema formation but during arteriolar dilation increased hrdostatic pressure hence edema formation occurs

good explanation, thx!
