CORTLAND, N.Y. — Guthrie Cortland Medical Center recently unveiled its new interventional radiology suite.
Interventional radiology is used to diagnose and treat a range of conditions using minimally invasive techniques, the health system said.

They include biopsies; thoracentesis; paracentesis; various urology and GI (gastrointestinal) procedures; central venous access devices such as tunneled catheters, ports and PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) lines and therapeutic exams; vertebroplasty; and various types of drains.
