Promise A new test is showing great promise in detecting breast cancer. It's called ductal lavage.
Doctors insert a catheter into the milk ducts of the breast.
A saline fluid rinses the duct to collect a sampling of cells and then the cells are tested for abnormalities. This test could be helpful for young women whose breast tissue is dense, which usually makes mammogram detection more difficult.
