Cancer ABCs: Aspirates, Biopsies and Cytology #25323
Speaker:
Sue Ettinger, DVM, DACVIM (Oncology)
In this presentation, the primary focus will be on the early diagnosis and treatment of skin and subcutaneous masses. Attendees will be encouraged to overcome any frustration resulting from doing aspirates, non-diagnostic samples, or seemingly untreatable tumors. New guidelines for the timely diagnosis of lumps and bumps in patients will be discussed. The importance of early diagnosis will be emphasized, as the majority of skin and subcutaneous tumors can be successfully cured with surgery alone, so it's important not to wait. Techniques for enhancing cytology proficiency will be explored, and the presentation will include an interactive session where real-life cytology case examples will be examined, enabling attendees to determine the tissue of origin and distinguish between benign and malignant masses. As advocates of the 'Why Wait? Aspirate' cancer awareness program, the aim is to empower attendees to adopt a proactive approach with the motto 'See Something, Do Something'
