This study evaluates the safety, feasibility, and therapeutic outcomes of computed tomography-guided radiofrequency ablation (CT-guided RFA) in 15 dogs diagnosed with nasal adenocarcinoma. All patients underwent staging and histopathological diagnosis before treatment. CT-guided RFA achieved a significant tumor volume reduction (82.8%) and improvement in clinical signs such as nasal discharge, epistaxis, and respiratory distress, without complications. Post-RFA CT examinations demonstrated a significant decrease in Hounsfield units and tumor volume. This study has shown that CT-guided RFA is an effective cytoreductive option for minimally invasive management of nasal adenocarcinomas in dogs, particularly when traditional therapies like radiation therapy or surgery are not feasible. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.es 2.7 2024 VETERINARY SCIENCES 21 / 170 = 0.124 2024 Q1 T1 AGRICULTURE, DAIRY & ANIMAL SCIENCE 15 / 86 = 0.174 2024 Q1 T1 0.733 2024 Veterinary (miscellaneous) 2024 Q1 Animal Science and Zoology 2024 Q1 5.2 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Corda, Andrea de Blas, Ignacio Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1204-4356 Gago, Lucas Fernandes, Telmo Rodríguez-Piza, Ignacio Balañá, Beatriz Pentcheva, Plamena Caruncho, Javier Barbero-Fernández, Alicia Llinás, Jorge Rivas, David Escudero, Amaia Gómez-Ochoa, Pablo Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-5504-1393 1009 773 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
