Clinical Trials at the Center for Image-Guided Animal Therapy

Clinician looking at animal images.

Veterinary clinical trials are research studies that focus on discovering novel diagnostics and treatments for veterinary patients. Veterinary clinical trials are conducted using evidence-based medicine. The results of these trials are used to improve the quality of life for animals with disease. There are many diseases affecting animals that have no effective treatments or cures; the Center for Image-Guided Animal Therapy (CIGAT) performs clinical trials in order to progress veterinary medicine into new areas with the ultimate goal that animals live longer, healthier lives. Every clinical trial performed at CIGAT has a principal investigator overseeing the study and all studies are approved by the Johns Hopkins University Animal Care and Use Committee.

Participation in clinical trials at CIGAT is voluntary in consultation made between the pet owner, the pet's veterinarian and veterinarians working at CIGAT. All risks are discussed in advance of any procedure being performed, and a patient may withdraw from participation at any time. All clinical trials require informed consent from the pet owner.
