This episode is part of our oncology mini-series on VETchat by The Webinar Vet. Joining Anthony today is Sarah Mason, Head of Oncology at Southfields Veterinary Specialists in Essex.

They discuss the advancements in cancer research and treatment, including the use of genomics in canine cancers and personalised medicine. Sarah discusses the use of surgery and radiation as a combined treatment method, emphasising how she believes we should not be using surgery alone. They also explore the role of radiation therapy in treating various tumours, such as nasal tumours, brain tumours, and anal sac tumours. Sarah emphasises the importance of contextualised care and considering the individual needs of each patient. They also touch on the challenges and limitations in veterinary oncology, including the cost of treatment and the need for more research.
