- Book Synopsis
- A detailed and clinically focused guide to treating small animal cancers in general veterinary practices Practical Canine and Feline Oncology is a practical, hands-on guide for veterinarians treating small animals with cancer in general veterinary practice. The book provides step-by-step details for how to effectively diagnose, treat, and monitor patients with oncologic disease when referral is not an option. It also offers critical background information on clinical best practices and diagnostic procedures, with a strong focus on the most common malignancies seen in dogs and cats. Beginning with an introduction to oncogenesis and paraneoplastic syndromes, diagnostics, and therapeutics, the book moves on to cover specific, frequently encountered malignancies in self-contained chapters. Each chapter describes a disease's behavior, pathophysiology, required and beneficial tests, and treatment options available to general veterinary practitioners, as well as some treatment options that are available but require significant care and caution in general care contexts. Readers will also find: Detailed, practical information supporting general practice veterinarians in managing small animal patients with cancerComprehensive explorations of specific, common malignancies that often present in a first opinion veterinary practicePractical discussions of common clinical issues, including managing the patient's family, pain, and nutritional needsConcise and accurate introductions to oncogenesis and to the general diagnostic and therapeutic techniques commonly used in small animal cancer treatment Practical Canine and Feline Oncology offers real-world advice and guidance to small animal general practitioners and veterinary students, as well as interns and residents.
