This presentation delves into clinical strategies for staging dogs with mast cell tumors (MCT's). It covers the timing and methodology for clinical staging, incorporating clinical presentation, basic pathology, and supplementary pathology markers. Emphasis is placed on their collective role in assessing the necessity of adjuvant medical management. The presentation also outlines a systematic and logical approach to determining appropriate adjuvant systemic therapy, helping veterinary professionals make informed treatment decisions for dogs with MCTs. By the end, attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of effective clinical staging, integrating pathology markers, and devising rational adjuvant therapies to enhance patient care outcomes.
