KENNEWICK, WA / ACCESSWIRE / March 15, 2016 / Advanced Medical Isotope Corporation (or “AMI”) (OTC: ADMD), (www.IsotopeWorld.com) a late stage development company engaged in the development of brachytherapy devices for therapeutic applications announced the formation of a new, wholly-owned subsidiary, IsoPet Solutions Corporation, to focus on the vibrant and expanding veterinary oncology market.
The IsoPet Solutions division will focus on bringing AMI’s yttrium-90 brachytherapy products to veterinary oncologists to treat dogs and cats suffering from tumor cancers. There are over 150 million pet dogs and cats, with over 1/3 of the households in the US owning at least one dog, and just under 1/3 owning at least one cat. IsoPet Solutions is establishing the infrastructure necessary to provide product to veterinary clinics including regulatory clearances and compliance.

AMI expects the initial treatments to be coordinated through the Chair of the Company’s Veterinary Medicine Advisory Board, Dr. Alice Villalobos.
AMI Founder, CEO and Chairman James C. Katzaroff stated: “Launching IsoPet Solutions allows specific resources to focus on the use of our yttrium-90 brachytherapy products in the veterinary space. We believe that AMI is positioned to build a significant presence in the cancer treatment tool-kit of veterinary oncologists.”
AMI Veterinary Medicine Advisory Board Chair Dr. Alice Stated: “I am thrilled to see the dedication of AMI to enter the veterinary markets through IsoPet Solutions. I am excited to work closely with the Company to launch its products for use in companion animals. In fact, our Pawspice practices are eager to make the treatments available as soon as possible, and we are preparing to offer treatments this spring.”
