I just watched a vet cancer webinar with Dr. Neal Mauldin, Chief Veterinary Medical Officer at PetCure Oncology and the National Director of Radiation Oncology for Thrive Pet Healthcare. During the webinar he discussed that PetCure Oncology locations have the advanced Stereotactic Radiation Therapy equipment to take on lung metastasis in dogs with osteosarcoma, and they are currently doing it.

He added that while there are other pet oncology clinics with the same equipment, not all are taking the same approach to treating lung metastasis with radiation therapy.
This approach is also helpful for dogs who are not good candidates for amputation. They can treat the primary tumor, and even lung mets if they are present.
