Meet us at ESVONC to find out how you can implement cost-effective radiation treatment in your practice quickly and easily. For 60 years, specialty veterinary practices around the world have been using radiation as an important modality to treat cancer and reduce inflammation in animals. Low energy, X-ray radiotherapy is an important and cost-effective treatment for skin cancer, dermatological disorders, certain types of benign diseases, and some palliative care in small and exotic companion animals.

Use Radiation Therapy in Cancer Treatment

For nearly 30 years, veterinary practices have been using radiation as an important modality to treat cancer and reduce symptoms in companion animals. In certain tumors, the goal of using radiation therapy is to eliminate any cancer cells that may remain following surgery. Radiation therapy is typically used in conjunction with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and other targeted therapies, for both curative and palliative purposes. Although the standard of care is intensity-modulated radiation therapy delivered with a linear accelerator, these treatments are very expensive. Low-energy orthovoltage treatments offer similar outcomes at a fraction of the cost.

Treat Arthritis and Ease Pain

Many animals suffer from arthritis and joint pain – in particular, some estimates suggest up to 20% of dogs experience these conditions and a reduced quality of life. Although there are surgical and pharmaceutical options to treat these conditions, experimental studies have shown that radiation can decrease joint inflammation. One study demonstrated that a single low dose of radiation therapy (10 Gray) may have a short-term benefit in dogs with elbow osteoarthritis. This is similar to the evidence supporting the use of radiation therapy in horses with orthopedic disease.
