IF it is cancer...that is what Jen would like to confirm.

Would a needle biopsy expose the mass to that much oxygen?

Conversely, could anything be injected INTO the mass to shrink it? Liquid nitrogen, something like that?

PT Prayers that you can find a simple way to get an answer, Jen!

Here is a link to a case study for a kitty with an abdominal mass, and the choices between ultrasound and surgery. A CT scan can apparently determine malignancy?

There are actual pics of this kitty's surgery, but you get warning - all the good text info is above that.

ALSO - they did a laparotomy, not full ab incision.


HUGS!
