Mast cell tumours occur in the dog, particularly in the boxer and related breeds, in the skin and less frequently in the intestines. Cytology usually provides an accurate diagnosis, but histological examination adds further information concerning the histologic grade and the completeness of surgical ...

Urease production, cytology, histopathology, culture, serology, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis can be used to diagnose Helicobacter infection, but in most naturally infected dogs, these species seem to cause no clinically significant change in gastric physiology or function [63], [64]...
Cytology samples can be examined in a logical, step-wise fashion (Fig 1). Masses in or under the skin have 4 basic cytological appearances: not cellular, cellular debris, cellular due to inflammation, or cellular due to noninflammatory cell types. If the sample is not cellular, the lesion ...

Fine-needle aspiration cytology is widely used in veterinary medicine to diagnose mast cell tumors (MCTs). Most articles and book chapters focus on cytologic criteria adapted from histologic classification systems. However, there are no studies correlating a histologic grading system with a cytologic ...
Two hundred and twenty dogs with MCT seen at a referral clinic were staged using LN palpation/cytology, thoracic radiography and abdominal ultrasound. The utility of each method was evaluated by considering prevalence of spread and future behaviour. At presentation, 30.9% of dogs had metastases to...
