Some common signs of cancer in pets are:

• Non-healing sores

• Weight loss despite adequate food intake

At VSH, our oncologists will work with your family veterinarian to provide the comprehensive care your pet needs. Our oncologists have extensive training in a wide range of medical oncology services and treatments and the most advanced equipment at their disposal. They specialize in the most current methods to diagnose and treat cancer while striving to preserve an excellent quality of life for the patient.The diagnostic process involves tests to identify the type of cancer and “staging” to determine whether the cancer has spread to other body areas. Some of the diagnostic techniques used in the process may include digital radiography, ultrasound, CT and MRI scans, tissue biopsies, and cytologic examinations. The specific tests chosen will aim to gain the maximum amount of information in the least invasive manner.
