Course Description 對一個不論是在執業或研究場所的獸醫學而言,腫瘤學是一個複雜且充滿挑戰的工作。在這個領域中,若是沒有具備充分的學識和臨床經驗,那動物癌症會是一個繁重的負擔,且與死亡無異。
For a vet, the oncology is a complex and is full of challenging tasks, no matter who is in practicing or researching. Animal cancer is a stressful case and shows no difference from the death, for a clinician who doesn’t have the adequate knowledge and best practice in this field.
