SUMMARY:IDEXX | Early Cancer Diagnosis: Don’t Miss the Warning Signs
DESCRIPTION:Subject: Early Cancer Diagnosis: Don’t Miss the Warning Signs\nSpeakers: Dr Dana Connell\nOrganizer: Idexx\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nThis session will focus on the consideration and diagnosis of cancer earlier in the clinical course with integration into the existing clinical algorithm. The gathering of information starts from history-taking with emphasis on specific open-ended questions. A physical examination can offer several worrisome clinical signs leading to a suspicion of cancer. Armed with this information\, routine blood work and diagnostics able to be performed in-house or at the reference lab starts to round out this clinical picture and helps to form a differential list for specific cancers. This differential list can be used to guide further recommendations to clients\, including diagnostics (including those that can be performed at the clinic and those that are advanced)\, referral to specialty hospitals\, or empirical therapy. The session will then close with an overview of the current offerings of diagnostics on the market which may aid in early detection of cancer in companion animals. \nLearning Objectives:\n1. Recognize specific questions that can be easily integrated into current history-taking techniques to maximize information which may lead to a suspicion of cancer in the patient with specific and non-specific clinical signs.\n2. Recall portions of the full physical examination necessary to be included in every patient examination to detect potentially subtle changes which can indicate early formation of cancer.\n3. Understand strategies for reviewing routine blood work to gain additional insights into body systems and changes which may be a sign of cancer.\n4. Learn strategies to identify appropriate recommendations for clients based on these early signs\, with focus on additional diagnostics.\n5. Review currently offered diagnostics to aid in the early diagnosis of cancer in canine and feline patients. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.

This webinar will review the hallmark cutaneous signs of common endocrinopathies\, practical management strategies\, and how concurrent allergies can complicate the picture. \nWe will also cover superficial necrolytic dermatitis (hepatocutaneous syndrome)\, emphasizing diagnosis and skin-focused treatment\, and conclude with key features of three immune-mediated diseases—acute febrile neutrophilic dermatitis\, eosinophilic dermatitis with edema\, and sterile panniculitis—to help distinguish them from similar infectious conditions. \nPresenter: Christina Gentry\, DVM\, DACVD\nDr. Gentry is a board-certified veterinary dermatologist and Clinical Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University. After earning her DVM from Texas A&M and completing her dermatology residency in Colorado\, she spent seven years in private practice in Denver and Houston\, focusing on feline allergic skin disease\, otitis\, and immune-mediated dermatologic conditions. Known for her energetic teaching style and passion for problem-solving in clinical dermatology\, Dr. Gentry returned to academia in 2023. She brings a practical and highly engaging approach to every lecture—making her sessions ones you won’t want to miss. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.
