We are blessed to have access to many veterinary specialists including Arizona Veterinary Oncology. We recently received training on an advanced method of treating many types of cancer – Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS). Few cancer centers in the world offer this advanced treatment option.
The advantages of SRS include fewer side effects than traditional radiation therapy, fewer treatment sessions and better outcomes.
