Dacryoscintigraphy is a diagnostic imaging technique used to evaluate the lacrimal system for blockages or abnormalities. A small amount of radioactive tracer is instilled into the eye, and images are taken as it travels through the tear ducts. The results help identify and locate the cause of tears draining poorly or not at all, such as a blocked tear duct or nasolacrimal duct.
