Are you overlooking azotemia in hyperthyroid cats? Explore the intriguing world of feline hyperthyroidism with veterinary endocrinologist Mark Peterson, who sheds light on why some hyperthyroid cats developing azotemia post-radioiodine treatment face shorter survival times. We'll challenge previous assumptions and dive into new research involving over 1,000 cats, revealing insights that are crucial for making informed treatment decisions for these beloved pets. Uncover the complexities of diagnosing concurrent chronic kidney disease and the critical role of factors like increased blood flow, muscle mass loss, and subsequent treatment options, including medical and dietary therapies.

In our conversation, Mark also takes us on his personal journey into endocrinology and his impactful contributions to feline health over the past four decades. As we look to the future, we discuss the potential advancements in diagnosing and managing azotemia, including the promising but cautious role artificial intelligence might play in veterinary research. Join us for a captivating discussion on the challenges of recognizing hypothyroidism in cats and the ongoing efforts to improve survival rates through innovative treatments, all backed by Mark’s extensive experience and passion for unraveling the mysteries of hyperthyroidism in cats.
