Vet team claims UK first in human cancer treatment on dog

Описание к видео Vet team claims UK first in human cancer treatment on dog

A dog has been successfully treated with a high-tech human cancer therapy in what is being claimed as a UK first.

Ralph, a five-year-old Gordon Setter, was treated with a specialised radiation beam, sculpted to the exact shape of his tumour.

Vets at the University of Edinburgh’s Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies said the treatment had only previously been available for humans and its use on Ralph marks a UK first.

Ralph’s problems were spotted after he was taken to the vet having had nosebleeds and he was diagnosed with an aggressive tumour in his nose.
