Sialography (also termed radiosialography) is the radiographic examination of the salivary glands. It usually involves the injection of a small amount of contrast medium into the salivary duct of a single gland, followed by routine X-ray projections.^[1]

The resulting image is called a sialogram.

Sialography has largely been replaced by sialoendoscopy^[2] and cross-sectional imaging, such as CT, MRI and ultrasonography.^[3]
