PetCure Oncology was created in 2014 by the founders of Accelitech, the largest privately-held network of stereotactic radiation centers in the human cancer market. While SRS/SRT is widely available for treating human cancers, the veterinary field has a limited supply of advanced tech and services. What's more, traditional radiation therapy can require dozens of daily visits over a six-week period, and can cause significant side effects for pets. It can also present a serious logistical challenge for pet owners.
As SRS/SRT begins to emerge in veterinary cancer care, early reports indicate good outcomes and fewer side effects than traditional radiation therapy, and pet owners appreciate the reduction in daily visits to three or fewer.

It was founded over 50 years ago, in 1968, by a French veterinarian Pierre-Richard Dick.

Now, for over 50 years, we have been shaping the future of animal health through the wide range of our innovative solutions provided to veterinarians, farmers and pet owners.
