Abstract

The invention provides methods, devices (10) and systems (60) for collecting breast ductal fluid comprising cellular material and other useful markers for analysis. The methods typically comprise access of at least one breast duct (D), and collecting materials from that duct separate from all other ducts in the breast. The devices (10) comprise ductal access devices that provide the opportunity to collect fluid from a single duct separate from all the other ducts in the breast. The systems (60) employ the methods and devices that used together provide systems for analysis of a breast condition in a patient specific to accessed breast ducts. The methods, devices (10) and systems (60) are particularly useful for identification of breast pre-cancer or cancer in a patient.
