Cancer Information

The optimal combination of these modalities depends on the individual case, based not only on the cancer, but on the individual patient's medical history. Determining the appropriate combination is an art that both our medical and radiation oncologist have developed together to offer our patients with the best quality of life possible.

Our oncology department is provided with advanced radiation equipment, which is of limited availability today in veterinary medicine. We are equipped with a Cobalt Unit as well as a Linear accelerator. Our Spiral CT Unit is set up to directly communicate with our Treatment Planning computer system so that dose calculations of our radiation treatment plans are of utmost precision and accuracy. We are also equipped with advanced blocking equipment allowing blocking of vital structures custom-made for each individual patient.
