“Successfully navigating cancer care takes very careful application of best practices in quality assurance, best technology, and highly trained experts to provide the best outcome,” said Mike Jones, R.T. (T), VRIC director of radiation therapy. “Using the same SRS technology with pets that has been effectively utilized for humans for decades has been a game-changer. We are saving lives every day.”
In recognition of May’s Brain Tumor Awareness Month, PetCure Oncology appreciates that brain tumors occur in both humans and pets. Seizures are the most common indication of brain tumors in dogs. Other symptoms may include unusual behavior or temperament, vision problems, movement in circles, uncoordinated movement, unsteady gait, lack of appetite, inappropriate urination, and/or lethargy. While brain tumors in cats are less common, they may display the same symptoms as dogs along with head-pressing and unusual meowing. Seek immediate care for a pet that shows indications of a brain tumor.
