DOI: 10.1177/0300985818800028
Abstract: Cutaneous mast cell tumors (cMCTs) account for approximately 20% of skin neoplasms in cats. As there is no grading system for these tumors, prognosis is difficult to estimate. Although the typical presentation is a benign… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0300985820985138
Abstract: Canine cutaneous mast cell tumors (ccMCTs) are currently graded according to Patnaik and Kiupel grading schemes. The qualitative and semiquantitative parameters applied in these schemes may lead to inter- and intraobserver variability. This study investigates… read more here.
