Canine Mast Cell Tumours - What You Need To Know

Canine mast cell tumours are commonly encountered in general practice. Management is not always straight forward but can be simplified by a few guiding principles. Join us to review canine mast cell tumours from a practical perspective and discuss what is new in their management.

We will briefly review the diagnosis of these tumours and importance of prognostic indicators as well as the surgical and medical principles of treatment. The focus will be on practical decision making that is relevant to you in general practice. We will also review the basics of administering intravenous chemotherapy agents commonly used to treat mast cell tumours. Finally we will look at options for oral chemotherapy and oral tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

This webinar will better place you for decision making and management of canine mast cell tumours in-house.
