title: [Contrast radiographic study of ductal pathology of the breast].
abstract: On the basis of personal experience, the possibility and the limits of galactography are discussed. Galactography has been used by the authors in any cases of discharge from the nipple, and has shown to be the only radiological examination able to discover intraductal tumours. Furthermore it allows to establish the site and extension of the lesions. Among the limits of the method the impossibility to distinguish between benign and malignant lesions is stressed out.
