The School of Veterinary Science’s Leahurst campus, Cheshire, has installed a Toshiba Aquilion Prime CT scanner in its Small Animal Teaching Hospital, which features in Channel 5’s Animal Clinic presented by Ben Fogle.

Head of diagnostic imaging Fraser McConnell said: “We chose Toshiba because of the company’s reputation for quality products and support in CT, which was confirmed by feedback from veterinary colleagues.  I felt that we will have a productive partnership, helping us to develop new techniques in veterinary CT.”
