  2. Frequency specific microcurrent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Frequency_specific_microcurrent

    Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) or frequency Specific Microcurrent Therapy (FSMT) is the practice of introducing a mild electrical current into an area of damaged soft tissue. Practitioners claim that the introduced current enhances the healing process underway in that same tissue.

  3. Veterinary oncology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterinary_oncology

    Mast cell tumor on lip of a dog. Veterinary oncology is a subspecialty of veterinary medicine that deals with cancer diagnosis and treatment in animals. Cancer is a major cause of death in pet animals. In one study, 45% of the dogs that reached 10 years of age or older died of cancer. [1]

  4. Canine cancer detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canine_cancer_detection

    Canine cancer detection is an approach to cancer screening that relies upon the claimed olfactory ability of dogs to detect, in urine or in breath, very low concentrations of the alkanes and aromatic compounds generated by malignant tumors. While some research has been promising, no verified studies by secondary research groups have ...

  5. Microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcurrent_electrical...

    A microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator or MENS (also microamperage electrical neuromuscular stimulator) is a device used to send weak electrical signals into the body. Such devices apply extremely small microamp [uA] electrical currents (less than 1 milliampere [mA]) to the tissues using electrodes placed on the skin.

  6. Cancer in dogs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer_in_dogs

    Dogs can develop carcinomas of epithelial cells and organs, sarcomas of connective tissues and bones, and lymphomas or leukemias of the circulatory system. Selective breeding of dogs has led certain pure-bred breeds to be at high-risk for specific kinds of cancer. [1] Veterinary oncology is the medical study of cancer in animals, and can be ...

  7. Medical applications of radio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_applications_of...

    In 1899 Austrian chemist von Zaynek determined the rate of heat production in tissue as a function of frequency and current density, and first proposed using high-frequency currents for deep heating therapy. [7] In 1908 German physician Karl Franz Nagelschmidt coined the term diathermy, and performed the first extensive experiments on patients. [8]

  8. Lymphoma in animals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphoma_in_animals

    Whereas dogs often appear healthy initially except for swollen lymph nodes, cats will often be physically ill. The symptoms correspond closely to the location of the lymphoma. The most common sites for alimentary (gastrointestinal) lymphoma are, in decreasing frequency, the small intestine , the stomach , the junction of the ileum , cecum , and ...

  9. Standardized uptake value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standardized_Uptake_Value

    3-dimensional [18 F]FDG-PET image with 3D ROI generated by a threshold based algorithm.The blue dot in the MIP image bottom right marks the maximum SUV within the ROI.. The standardized uptake value (SUV) is a nuclear medicine term, used in positron emission tomography (PET) as well as in modern calibrated single photon emission tomography (SPECT) imaging for a semiquantitative analysis.
