“In veterinary medicine, many of our opinions are shaped by retrospective studies and anecdotes. We tend to forget this as we study for our board exams.” Dr. Chand Khanna, president of Ethos Discovery, shares insights on preventing misinformed euthanasia for splenic tumor rupture in dogs and recent findings that challenge historic misconceptions.

Detecting Canine Cancer with Rapid Raman Molecular Urinalysis A study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science in February, led by researchers from Virginia Tech has developed a new method to detect cancer in dogs using rapid Raman molecular urinalysis: https://lnkd.in/eZc7734m This noninvasive technique analyzes urine samples to create a unique spectral fingerprint, which allows for remarkable accuracy in detecting various cancers. The urine screening test achieved a 92.7% overall accuracy in distinguishing between cancerous and non-cancerous samples. The test demonstrated 94.0% sensitivity and 90.5% specificity, highlighting its reliability. The method was effective in detecting lymphoma, urothelial carcinoma, osteosarcoma, and mast cell tumors. Unlike traditional biopsies, this technique uses urine samples, making it simpler and less stressful for dogs. Cancer is common in dogs, with nearly 1 in 4 developing some form of neoplasia during their lifetime. Early detection is crucial for effective treatment and better outcomes. This innovative approach offers a rapid, accurate, and non-invasive way to screen for cancer, potentially revolutionizing how veterinarians diagnose and manage cancer in dogs.

Deborah Knapp, DVM, MS, DACVIM (Oncology), a professor of Comparative Oncology and director of the Evan and Sue Ann Werling Comparative Oncology Research Center, recently led a study at Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine & Veterinary Hospital linking cigarette smoke exposure to a significantly higher rate of bladder cancer in Scottish terriers. Over a three-year period, Dr. Knapp's team tracked 120 Scottish terriers, discovering a strong link between smoke exposure and this aggressive cancer type. This research helps shed light on how environmental factors, like smoke, contribute to cancer development in dogs, with findings that have implications for human health as well. ➡️ Read the full article: https://buff.ly/4fOjWRt

November is #NationalPetCancerAwarenessMonth, and we’re celebrating the crucial role that veterinary oncologists play in treating pets with unique or aggressive cancers. When seven-year-old Lily was first diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, her prognosis was uncertain. Thanks to innovative treatment options like electrochemotherapy and the dedicated care of Carrie Wood, DVM, DACVIM (Oncology) at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University, Lily's tumor has been significantly reduced, bringing her a better quality of life. ➡️ Read the full story and discover how veterinary oncologists are revolutionizing cancer care: https://buff.ly/4fjpsen

Purdue University and the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine & Veterinary Hospital, in partnership with Akston Biosciences Corporation, has initiated the enrollment of dogs with urinary bladder cancer in a clinical trial of a pioneering immunotherapy, designed to target and block a specific protein on cancer cells. This groundbreaking technology was developed at the College of Veterinary Medicine and the Purdue Institute for Cancer Research (PICR). This study will assess safety and efficacy within dogs suffering from urinary blader cancer, with potential applications for human treatments. #research #cancer #healthcare #clinicaltrial #purdue #indiana #lifesciences
