Endoscopic examinations are valuable noninvasive tools for diagnosing and staging neoplastic disorders in animals. Further research is needed to explore endoscopic therapies like laser or photodynamic therapy in companion animals.

Area of Science:

Veterinary Medicine
Oncology
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Neoplastic disorders present diagnostic challenges in companion animals.
Endoscopic examinations offer a noninvasive approach for diagnosis and staging.
Current therapeutic applications of endoscopy require further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

To highlight the diagnostic value of endoscopy in animal neoplasia.
To identify the need for further research into endoscopic therapies in companion animals.

Main Methods:

Review of current endoscopic diagnostic applications.
Identification of research gaps in endoscopic therapeutic interventions.

Main Results:

Endoscopy is a valuable adjunct for diagnosing and staging neoplastic disorders.

Clinical applications of endoscopic-guided laser or photodynamic therapy are not yet thoroughly investigated in companion animals.

Conclusions:

Endoscopy is a crucial complementary diagnostic tool.
Further investigation into endoscopic therapies is warranted for companion animals.
