Methods: This was a single-center experimental cadaveric study. 10 VBO procedures were performed by 5 board-certified surgeons in 5 feline cadavers.
Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics, treatments, complications, and outcomes in dogs with nasal planum squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) undergoing local treatment.
Methods: A retrospective, multi-institutional study was performed. Medical records were searched to identify dogs diagnosed with nasal planum SCC.
Objective: The aim of the study was to describe laparoscopic ultrasound (LUS) to guide microwave ablation (MWA) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a dog.

Study Design: Experimental study.
Animals: A total of 15 healthy, client-owned dogs.
