Scandinavian ChemoTech’s Animal Care is delighted to confirm the receipt of an order of €48k from Europe’s foremost equine clinic, EquiTom, Lummen in Belgium, distinguished for its pioneering advancements in equine healthcare.
With a stellar reputation and being the largest, most innovative equine clinic in Europe with a hospitalisation capacity of more than 150 horses, receiving clients from more than 70 countries, this clinic stands as a beacon of excellence in the field of equine medicine.
Their decision to invest in the vetIQure™ system was made after a successful training and introduction including treating three patients with sarcoids (a common tumour amongst horses). This clearly demonstrates the superiority of our technology, TSE (Tumour Specific Electroporation™), compared to older destructive therapies that are still prevalent in current treatments.
“After successfully treating three patients over the past two weeks, I can clearly see the benefit and added value of the TSE therapy compared to what we have access to today for treating sarcoids. The integration of vetIQure™ TSE technology will enhance the overall experience for both our clinic and our patients, thereby increasing the value proposition.” says Liesbeth Haegeman, Resident in Equine Surgery ECVS at EquiTom
“Securing a commercial agreement with EquiTom marks a major milestone for us as we expand into Europe. Our goal is to lead in providing cutting-edge healthcare solutions for horses and companion animals dealing with cancer and sarcoids.” says Mohan Frick, CEO of Scandinavian ChemoTech.
The integration of vetIQure™ into EquiTom’s operations showcases its commitment to innovative and excellent equine healthcare. With our technology, clinicians gain a powerful, non-destructive tool for treating tumours, most often without general anesthesia, using only standing sedation.
