TL;DR: Dogs responded well to reirradiation with a subset experiencing chronic ocular side effects, and the following factors were examined but were not significant for survival: total RT dose, dose of the first course of RT, complete resolution of clinical signs, use of either chemotherapy or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and stage.

Value of Echocardiography and Electrocardiography as Screening Tools Prior to Doxorubicin Administration

Journal of the American Animal Hospital Association, 48(2), 89–96.

By: W. Ratterree*, T. Gieger*, R. Pariaut*, C. Saelinger* & K. Strickland*

MeSH headings : Animals; Cardiomyopathies / chemically induced; Cardiomyopathies / veterinary; Cardiotoxins / adverse effects; Dog Diseases / chemically induced; Dogs; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Doxorubicin / administration & dosage; Doxorubicin / adverse effects; Echocardiography / veterinary; Electrocardiography / veterinary; Female; Male; Mass Screening / methods; Mass Screening / veterinary; Prevalence; Retrospective Studies
TL;DR: The authors of this report hypothesized that by using their institution's adopted guidelines, they would detect pre-existing cardiac abnormalities that preclude doxorubicin administration in <10% of dogs by using echocardiography and electrocardiography. (via Semantic Scholar)

Three-dimensional conformal versus non-graphic radiation treatment planning for apocrine gland adenocarcinoma of the anal sac in 18 dogs (2002-2007)

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, 10(4), 237–245.

By: M. Keyerleber*, T. Gieger*, H. Erb*, M. Thompson* & M. McEntee*

author keywords: anal sac adenocarcinoma; dog; radiation therapy; treatment planning
MeSH headings : Adenocarcinoma / radiotherapy; Adenocarcinoma / veterinary; Anal Gland Neoplasms / pathology; Anal Gland Neoplasms / radiotherapy; Anal Sacs / pathology; Animals; Apocrine Glands / pathology; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dog Diseases / radiotherapy; Dogs; Dose-Response Relationship, Radiation; Female; Male
TL;DR: 3D conformal treatment planning resulted in more homogenous dose distribution to target tissues with lower hot spots and dose ranges, but this came at the cost of delivering greater mean doses of radiation and of irradiating greater volumes of surrounding normal tissue structures.
