Diagnostic Imaging
Our service offers some of the most advanced imaging technologies available in veterinary medicine, of the same caliber found in a modern human hospital. Our diagnostic imaging capabilities include the full breadth of modalities, and are run by our team of on-site, board-certified radiologists and experienced technological staff.
A dedicated member of the Anesthesia and Pain Care service will be assigned exclusively to the task of closely monitoring your animal’s vitals and potential side effects during any procedure requiring pain management or anesthesia.
Clinical Diagnostic Assay Development and Processing Center
The Clinical Diagnostic Assay Development and Processing Center (CDADPC) was formed to facilitate the objectives of creating medical diagnostic and predictive assays for commercial and clinical use, as well as advancing scientific discovery for basic and translational research.
Primary emphases are placed on the discovery of biomarkers for disease and treatment, and the targeted assay development for previously discovered biomarkers.
A first step towards the CDADPC’s goal was the establishment of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) resources to allow small molecule biomarker discovery and assay development. This LC-MS instrumentation and required scientific expertise is available for use by the Translational Medicine Institute and external investigators wanting to apply this technology to assay development or basic and clinical research objectives.
Medtronic’s StealthStation™ S8 navigation platform and O-arm™ intraoperative CT imaging system
Colorado State University is the first veterinary facility in North America to acquire Medtronic’s StealthStation™ S8 navigation platform, a surgical navigation system. Paired with the O-arm™ intraoperative CT imaging system, this technology will help guide CSU surgeons with increased precision during challenging spinal and neurosurgical procedures requiring pinpoint accuracy.
Learn more about Medtronic’s StealthStation™ S8 navigation platform at CSU, hearing directly from Drs. Andres Bonilla and Jeremiah Easley.
If you have a challenging clinical or research case, or if you are interested in a trial using the system, please fill out the O-arm and surgical navigation system request form to begin, or contact Dr. Andres Bonilla ([email protected]) directly for more information.
