Radioactive Iodine I-131 Therapy for Feline Hyperthyroidism
Feline hyperthyroidism treatment at our location in Queensbury, NY (as well as our other hyperthyroidism centers,) offers radioactive iodine I-131 therapy for cats diagnosed with feline hyperthyroidism. Radioactive iodine (I-131) therapy is the preferred method of therapy for this condition, as it is effective, safe, and economical. Our feline hyperthyroid therapy consists of simple one-injection treatment just under the cat's skin, much like a routine feline vaccine.
Our Queensbury Thyro-Cat Treatment Center
The Thyro-Cat Treatment Center in Queenbury is a comfortable space for your cat during the administering of the radioactive iodine injection, as well as the monitoring period to follow. The climate-controlled feline treatment facility is large, comfortable, and calming so that your cat can be as at ease at possible during the procedure. Most cats are housed with us for 3-5 days, as is the law, in order to be able to monitor your cat's health after the procedure, as well as to make sure the radioactive material is at a safe level when leaving the hospital. After admission to the Queensbury feline hyperthyroidism treatment facility, the cat-once found healthy-receives the injection of radioactive iodine therapy. After the injection, your cat will be closely monitored for health and radioiodine (I-131) levels during his or her stay.
