The future of veterinary medicine is coming to Texas A&M University’s College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences in the form of a state-of-the-art Imaging and Cancer Treatment Center, and with that comes diagnostic and treatment capabilities never before possible in one location.

"Combining the best equipment with the skilled clinical specialists of our Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital enables us to provide better care for patients of all species and better service to our referring veterinarians – as well as to our profession. In addition, this new technology allows our students to experience the latest in diagnostic and therapeutic imaging and will equip them with new knowledge that leads to becoming better veterinarians in the future."
