Big news for brave Franklin 🐾✨
Franklin, a beloved family dog diagnosed with a brain tumor, recently received advanced treatment at Virginia Tech’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital. His care included brain surgery followed by photodynamic therapy using Modulight’s laser system ML7710 together with verteporfin. The procedure was performed by Dr. John Rossmeisl and the team at the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine.
We’re happy to share that Franklin is doing GREAT at home! 💙 No seizures, no complications—he’s happy, acting like his normal self, and recovering beautifully. His owners are beyond grateful and hopeful about what this technology could mean for other dogs facing devastating brain tumors.
Franklin is a veterinary patient receiving treatment for a serious disease through advanced clinical care. Modulight’s products have been used in clinical glioblastoma treatments for several years, and the company has been involved in clinical research on laser‑based therapies for even longer. This work continues to expand treatment possibilities for patients who have limited options.
Way to go, Franklin—you’re leading the way! 🐶🌟
