Rockville, MD: December 10, 2019. Robovet Corporation, a Rockville, Maryland startup focused on building novel veterinary diagnostic imaging systems, today announced it has begun raising funds through an equity crowdfunding campaign on the Wefunder platform (www.Wefunder.com/robovet). Robovet’s novel MRI systems for veterinary diagnostic imaging, robotic surgery and image guided therapy are expected to dramatically reduce the costs of advanced diagnostic imaging and veterinary cancer treatment. The company, headed by veterinary radiologist MC Seward DVM, MS, MBA, utilizes novel magnetic systems initially developed within the Weinberg Medical Physics incubator. According to Dr. Seward, “When I learned about Robovet’s MRI and image-guided treatment technology, it was easy to see the potential applications to the broader veterinary market in advanced diagnostic imaging and innovative therapies for equine and small animal veterinary patients”. “Dr. Seward’s academic work in MRI-guided therapy and his entrepreneurial experience make him the ideal CEO for the company,“ stated Irving Weinberg, MD PhD, co-founder.
