The first part of this intensive program will cover the imaging techniques used to diagnose and stage cancer patients. Conventional techniques such as radiology and ultrasound, and more advanced techniques such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging will be discussed. Students will explore the advantages and limitations of each technique, as well as the most appropriate technique for each type of tumor.

New diagnostic techniques, such as molecular diagnostics, will also be discussed. The different molecular techniques and how they can help the diagnosis, establish a prognosis and guide the treatment will be developed, as well.

This course will delve into one of the basic pillars of oncological therapy such as oncological surgery and peri-surgical aspects. Surgical Oncology is the basis of most oncologic treatments in companion animals. Most of the treatments in oncology are based on containing or reducing tumor cells to minimize their expansion; however, in most cases, a correct surgery is the only technique capable of curing the neoplasm.

This program will define the concepts of surgical margins, palliative and cytoreductive surgery, and will describe the different methods for taking biopsies. Perioperative considerations in the oncologic patient will be analyzed.

Moreover, it is important to understand that successfully treating neoplasms is not exclusively based on surgical treatment, in many cases post and/or preoperative oncologic treatment will be necessary in the context of multidisciplinary teams of clinical oncologists, radiologists and oncologic surgeons. Therefore, treatments using chemotherapy and molecular/targeted cancer therapy, as well as newer techniques such as electrochemotherapy, will also be imparted. Their advantages and limitations will be assessed, as well as the possible side effects for each therapy.

As it is an online Postgraduate Certificate, students are not conditioned by fixed schedules, nor do they need to commute to another location. All of the content can be accessed at any time of the day, so you can balance your working or personal life with your academic life.
