| | Oncology |
| | The oncology service works from a team approach – so a patient requiring chemotherapy and radiation therapy has the benefit of being evaluated by specialists in each of these fields, who then design a treatment protocol tailored to their individual needs. | | | With the incorporation of radiation it is often possible to perform a less aggressive surgery than would otherwise be necessary, while still achieving a high chance of cure. | | | The LSU CTU is the only veterinary school in the country that uses a multileaf collimator to perform intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). |
