title: Galactocele: three distinctive radiographic appearances.
abstract: Three radiographic appearances of galactocele of the breast not, to our knowledge, described previously in the literature were studied in 11 patients. Mammary nodules with distinct and separate hydro-fat levels were observed in five cases. A nodule containing mixed water and fat densities was seen in one patient, while in the five remaining patients, pneumocystograms revealed masses of a water density mixed with the injected air.
