Ductography is an imaging procedure that uses a contrast medium to visualize breast ducts. It is performed on patients who have pathologic nipple discharge to locate abnormalities in the ducts and guide surgical excision of lesions. This article discusses when and how ductography should be performed, normal and abnormal findings on ductograms, and some conditions commonly diagnosed with ductography. Arguments for and against replacing ductography with magnetic resonance imaging of the breasts also are presented.
