At VCA Pet CancerCare Centers, our oncology teams design individualized treatment plans for each pet patient using the most advanced and effective treatments available—much like those used in human medicine. Today’s cancer treatments have fewer side effects, so most pets remain comfortable and happy throughout treatment.
Advanced technology, including the Varian Halcyon, enables VCA Pet CancerCare’s radiation oncologists to target tumors while sparing surrounding normal tissue. The result: fewer visits and shorter treatment times while improving tumor response and minimizing side effects.
The Pet CancerCare Alliance (PCCA) is VCA’s interdisciplinary group of oncology professionals. The PCCA is led by an advisory board whose goal is to raise the level of pet cancer care industry wide, through education, research, consultation and development of pioneering treatments aimed at improving outcomes for pets living with cancer.
