The Clinical and Pathophysiological Aspects of Feline Lung-Digit Syndrome

The Clinical and Pathophysiological Aspects of Feline Lung-Digit Syndrome
The Clinical and Pathophysiological Aspects of Feline Lung-Digit Syndrome

Feline Oncology can be a challenging discipline and clinicians need to understand the natural history of tumours to understand clinical presentation and management. The lifestyle of cats often presents further challenges as clinical features of disease are recognised at a very advanced stage. Lung - digit syndrome in cats is a syndrome commonly associated with lung cancer. In this webinar we will explore clinical presentation and pathophysiology of this condition and how it can be managed. More broadly we will examine the management of lung cancer in cats and other tumours that are associated with the respiratory system. This includes prognosis and management, including palliation.

Advanced diagnostics in canine and feline lymphoma.
So you have a diagnosis of lymphoma in your small animal patient. What next?  Classification of lymphoma is increasingly important for both prognostic and therapeutic decision making. This webinar will discuss diagnostic options to optimise the diagnostic process in your patient.  Modalities discussed will include immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry and PARR.

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.
