Pioneering the Future of Veterinary Neurology

At the Animal Neurology Center, we have partnered with industry giants to integrate the latest breakthroughs in medical technology, creating a center of unparalleled care. Together, we innovate, validate, and shape the future of advanced veterinary medicine-All for the exceptional benefit to your pet.

The Most Advanced Animal Imaging Center in the U.S.

In collaboration with Siemens Healthineers, we have developed
an unmatched imaging facility. Our Siemens FreeStar MRI, the
only one of its kind in the U.S., features built-in AI technology for
optimal image quality with minimal noise—allowing for lighter,
safer anesthesia. This is complemented by a 128-slice Perspective
CT, the fastest CT scanner in the St. Louis area, ensuring rapid
and precise diagnostics.

Proprietary 3D Veterinary Printing: Revolutionizing Spinal Stabilization

By partnering with Artemedics, a global leader in orthopedic implants, and leveraging our proprietary 3D veterinary printing technology, we have transformed spinal stabilization. Our innovative approach is redefining what’s possible in safe, effective, and customized neurosurgical solutions.

The Ultimate in Surgical Precision

The 3D VITOM exoscope from Storz provides an unparalleled 27x magnification with bright illumination, enhancing the precision and accuracy of every neurological procedure. This cutting-edge visualization tool allows for more refined surgical techniques, improving outcomes for our patients.

Immediate Diagnostic Results

Our fully equipped in-house laboratory, featuring Zoetis’ Imagyst system, eliminates the need to send out slides for review. What once took days now takes minutes, allowing for faster diagnosis and treatment when it matters most.

Human-Level Anesthesia Technology for Veterinary Medicine

We prioritize safety in every procedure. Mindray’s advanced anesthesia equipment, with integrated ventilators and precision syringe pumps, delivers human-grade precision in a companion animal setting, ensuring the safest surgical experience for every patient.

Controlled drug safety for patients AND staff

Managing pain requires the utility of opioids and analgesics that require rigorous management because of their abuse potential. Cubex miniplus enables us to get accurately dosed medications quickly and safely.

The Ultimate Recovery Environment

Surgery is only the beginning—recovery is just as critical. Our Aeolus ICU cages regulate oxygen concentration, temperature, and humidity, providing optimal post-surgical care to support each patient’s healing and comfort.

Hands off patient monitoring

Real time monitoring and patient rest are equally important components of recovery. We use Vet Guardian technology to monitor your patients vitals signs from a distance with a streaming video of their experience. Quiet time for them with a vigilant eye on their care.

Comfort as a Key to Recovery

Therapeutic support matters. Our exam rooms and ICU are outfitted with Big Barker beds, designed to promote joint health and overall recovery. Scan the QR code on each bed to learn more about the science behind their orthopedic benefits.

Advancing Seizure Management

Neurologic care goes far beyond surgery. We’ve partnered with PRN Pharmacal, makers of K-BroVet, a trusted and effective tool in canine seizure management, providing flexible dosing options and consistent, dependable control for chronic epilepsy cases.

In addition, we’re working with ElleVet Sciences, pioneers in cannabinoid science, to explore the use of CBD+CBDA formulations for managing treatment-resistant epilepsy. Their veterinary-exclusive formulations are backed by clinical trials and represent an exciting frontier in natural adjunctive seizure control for dogs and cats

At ANC, technology meets compassion, shaping the future of advanced veterinary neurology.
