One of the UK’s leading veterinary centres has invested in pioneering new equipment to keep it at the cutting edge of animal care.
North Downs Specialist Referrals (NDSR), part of UK-wide Linnaeus, has installed a £55,000 state-of-the-art SonoCure ultrasonic surgical aspirator.
NDSR’s director of neurology Rodolfo Capello says the technology of the system is revolutionary and will help the Surrey-based animal hospital take the treatment of tumours to another level.
Rodolfo said: “This technology is one of the most advanced in medicine and helps to surgically remove tumours while also reducing the tissue damage to vital structures.
“The accuracy and control of the system offers us greater versatility and precision, and minimises invasive manoeuvers during both soft and hard tissue dissections.
“Surgeons can therefore be extremely confident of accurate tumour excision with reduced blood vessel and tissue damage which will all help increase and improve the outcome of our surgeries.
“We’ll be using the ultrasonic surgical aspirator for the removal of tumours in the brain, liver and to cut through bone where necessary. It will be a great asset.”
NDSR hospital director Terry Emmerson added: “This latest investment is an important and exciting addition to the facilities on offer at North Downs.
“The ultrasonic surgical aspirator will transform our ability to provide first class care and treatment for our patients and a top-class service to pets’ owners and the first opinion vets who refer serious cases to us.
“It’s all part of our continuing commitment to invest in the best equipment and technology, provide the finest facilities and recruit the best staff in order to deliver excellence at every level.”
