Pretoria - The University of Pretoria's Faculty of Veterinary Science in Onderstepoort has once again demonstrated why it remains the best in the country and Africa with the first successful CT scan on a live adult rhino.
The procedure conducted through the collaboration between the Onderstepoort Veterinary Academic Hospital and The Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary was reportedly a huge milestone in veterinary healthcare and diagnostic imaging, as well as rhino conservation. The white rhino named Oz was orphaned by poachers in 2015. He was rescued and brought to Care for Wild Sanctuary for rehabilitation, release and ongoing protection.
However, earlier this year, when Rhino Monitors noticed an unusual swelling to his face the Sanctuary's CEO, Petronel Nieuwoudt consulted with veterinarian, Dr Albertus Coetzee of West Acres Animal Hospital.
