BREAST HEALTH > DUCTOGRAM

A ductogram is performed to determine the cause of a discharge from the nipple.

How is it done?
Dr. Bertrand places a small canula, or tube, in the nipple duct that is the source of the discharge.  She then injects X-ray contrast and a mammogram is performed.  This shows the ducts of the breast and helps to pinpoint the cause of the discharge.

Do I need to do anything special before having this procedure?
No.

When will I get the results?
Usually that same day.
