MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING IN CANINE TUMORAL PATHOLOGY

摘要

In veterinary pathology tumors are very frequent and the general symptomatic chart of sick animals may very easily result in diagnosis errors and confusions. The Imagistic Research is a very important, essential tool in the diagnosis process, both in the pre-therapeutic stage for the early diagnosis of tumors and in the post-therapeutic stage for the detection of tumor recurrence. The magnetic resonance, not long ago adopted in the clinical use and particularly in the veterinary field, further to the higher tissue contrast it offers and to the possibility of obtaining three-dimensional sections, represents the most eligible method of diagnosis of tumors.Its target is to detect, describe and stage the lesion in the tumoral pathology.
