Course Overview
Led by Dr. Laura Marconato (Dipl. ECVIM-CA, Oncology) and a distinguished European faculty, this program brings together top oncologists sharing the latest clinical and research insights in veterinary oncology.
Designed as a complete learning pathway — from fundamentals to clinical mastery — the course covers tumor biology, diagnosis, staging, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and system-based oncology (neurologic, skin, bone, oral, abdominal, hematopoietic, reproductive, etc.).
Through extensive case-based discussions, participants develop strong diagnostic reasoning, treatment planning, and decision-making skills for complex oncologic cases.
A hybrid format combines flexible online theory learning with in-person workshops and interactive sessions, offering both structured knowledge and practical clinical training.
