MRI of duct ectasia. MRI and US images of 40-year-old lactating patient with palpable mass on the left breast are presented. Initial work-up included US which revealed a 4 cm cystic mass with thick boundaries, with relative mixed cystic areas (e) and stiffness on static elastography (f).

Finally, US-guided biopsy ruled out malignancy with duct ectasia diagnosis
