Accurate, affordable, and convenient<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

CADET\u2122 BRAF evaluates canine urine samples for the presence of cells containing the b-raf mutation for the most common type of canine bladder\/prostate cancer (transitional cell carcinoma, also known as urothelial carcinoma TCC\/UC). This cutting-edge technology is accurate, affordable, and convenient for both veterinarian and pet owner.

CADET BRAF can detect up to 85% of TCC\/UC cases. For dogs without the b-raf mutation, BRAF-Plus (a reflex test) can detect an even greater number of dogs with TCC\/UC.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Reliable Accuracy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

CADET BRAF detects up to 85% of TCC\/UC cases in dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For dogs without the b-raf mutation, BRAF-Plus (a reflex test) allows a greater number of TCC\/UC patients be identified with just a urine sample.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Results are not impacted by the presences of red or white blood cells, protein, bacteria, or other potentially interfering substances which may impact urine testing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n

How CADET BRAF is used in a clinical setting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Veterinarians can investigate for potential TCC\/UC early in the course of the patient\u2019s diagnostic workup. This is ideal for dogs presenting with abnormal urinary signs such as persistent hematuria, stranguria and recurrent or complicated urinary tract infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CADET BRAF can also be used as confirmation of TCC\/UC diagnosis in cases for which cytologic findings are suspicious but not diagnostic for malignancy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
