Galactography kits are specialized medical tools used in radiology to examine and diagnose issues within the milk ducts of the breast. Typically consisting of catheters, contrast agents, and imaging equipment, these kits facilitate a procedure known as galactography, also referred to as ductography or mammary ductography. During galactography, a contrast agent is injected into the milk ducts, allowing for clear visualization of any abnormalities or blockages within the ductal system. This procedure is particularly useful in cases of nipple discharge, as it helps identify the underlying cause, such as intraductal papillomas, ductal ectasia, or even malignancies like ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Galactography kits are designed with precision and sterility to ensure accurate imaging and diagnosis while minimizing the risk of infection or complications for the patient. They play a crucial role in the early detection and management of breast conditions, ultimately contributing to improved patient outcomes and quality of care in breast health.
