“With veterinary medicine constantly evolving, AVC must continually upgrade to keep pace with the changing needs and new technologies within the profession,” said VanLeeuwen. The machine is part of a campaign that includes a state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging centre and footprint expansion for the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. The centre is also receiving a refurbished computed tomography scanner, a range of ultrasound machines and fluoroscopy and endoscopy equipment for minimally invasive surgeries.
Once it arrived at AVC, Siemens personnel used a coordinated rigging system to move the scanner into the Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
