Surgical resection and fractionated radiotherapy are currently the principal methods used to treat canine and feline brain tumors, and these therapies are capable of improving both the quality and quantity of life in small animals.
MST for surgical treatment of primary brain tumors is 10.5 months (one to 70 months) (Hu et al. 2015). Meningioma, the most common primary brain tumor in dogs, has a median survival time of approximately nine months when treated with surgery alone.

Abstract. Background: Gliomas in dogs remain poorly understood. Objectives: To characterize the clinicopathologic findings, diagnostic imaging fea- tures and survival of a large sample of dogs with glioma using the Comparative Brain. Tumor Consortium diagnostic classification.
Genetic predisposition. Diagnosis of Brain Tumors in Dogs. Brain tumors vary widely in the type of malignant growth, their location, size and rate of growth. The symptoms of a brain tumor will be determined by two factors: the part of the brain the tumor is damaging, and any other structures nearby.
