Blood-based liquid biopsy using next-generation sequencing (NGS) became clinically available in May 2021. Since that time, the test has been ordered for thousands of patients, primarily as a screening tool for dogs at higher risk of cancer as well as an aid in diagnosis for dogs for which there is a clinical suspicion of cancer.

Join Todd Cohen, DVM, DACVIM (Small Animal Internal Medicine), for a review of data from a recent publication in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (JAVMA) analyzing a cohort of 1,500 consecutive liquid biopsy tests received for commercial testing at one clinical laboratory. The webinar will include a discussion of ordering patterns, positivity rates, and patient outcome data, along with how this data can be used to discuss liquid biopsy testing with clients. A series of interesting case studies will be presented, exploring the use of this testing in a variety of clinical settings.
