FREEWebinar Overview
The Future of Cancer Detection is Here: Revolutionize Cancer Detection with Liquid Biopsy
New cutting-edge technology is helping general practitioners detect more than 30 types of cancer with a single blood draw. Join us in this webinar to see how you, your practice, and your patients could benefit from liquid biopsy testing.
Cancer is the leading cause of death in dogs, likely due in part to delays in diagnosis, and traditional testing often requires specialized and invasive techniques. Register for this webinar to meet the new technology that’s here to change the way canine cancer is detected with a single blood draw. Whether screening for cancer at wellness visits or an aid in diagnosis for a sick pet, this new technology is here to help veterinarians detect cancer earlier.
Speaker
Angela McCleary-Wheeler, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (Oncology)
