Ultrasound scanning position for detection of milk ejection in the lactating breast. The breast that is not suckled/expressed is monitored using a high frequency linear array ultrasound transducer. The milk duct monitored is in the lateral portion of the breast near the base of the nipple. Minimal pressure must be used to avoid compression of the duct.
