title: Technical considerations of interventional radiology. Unit design and coordination of diagnostic pathology services.
abstract: With close cooperation between the clinician, radiologist, and pathologist, and with exacting attention to detail, the combined techniques of interventional radiology and diagnostic cytopathology can provide a definitive diagnosis in a large variety of clinical situations. Undoubtedly, the increasing interest in utilization of these methods will expand the number of patients who can benefit from these rapid, safe, relatively inexpensive, and highly accurate diagnostic techniques.
