Canine Mast Cell Tumours - What You Need To Know
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.

Staging the Oncology Patient
Staging is one of the most important components of oncology case management. It involves determining the extent of local disease along with the presence or absence of regional or distant metastasis. The results of staging are used to give more accurate and informed treatment options along with prognostic information for each oncology patient. Some of the biggest challenges in staging is to consider how much staging is required for each case, which are the most appropriate tests, and if the results of these tests will impact treatment options and prognosis. I will discuss this information in a case-based and evidence-based approach, focusing on some of the more common cancers including canine mast cell tumours, lymphoma, oral tumours and apocrine gland anal sac adenocarcinomas.

I think the dog has bone cancer. What's next?

A dog presents to you limping. You take an x-ray and discover an aggressive bone lesion. You suspect a primary bone tumour. What are the differential diagnoses? What next?

As a vet, you will encounter a dog with an aggressive appendicular bone lesion on x-rays. Most dogs will have osteosarcoma, but other types of cancers, benign lesions and infection are possible.
