Advances in Cancer Treatment: The Power of Electrochemotherapy

Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is a medical treatment that combines chemotherapy with electrical pulses to enhance the delivery of anti-cancer drugs to tumour cells.

Cancer treatment in veterinary medicine has made significant progress over the years. In the past, a cancer diagnosis for pets often meant only palliative care was available. Today, we can offer a wide range of advanced treatments, including chemotherapy, to help manage the disease.

Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is one of these treatment options and has been effectively used to treat certain tumours in dogs and cats.

Our oncologists, Celia and Marianne, will be discussing ECT. They will cover which cases are best suited for this treatment, as well as the techniques involved and how the therapy works.
