Patrones geográficos y factores asociados al cáncer mamario canino en Bogotá, Colombia: 2020-2021
Abstract
The study aimed to analyse the spatial distribution of mammary cancer in female dogs according to breed, age, and carcinoma type, as well as clustering or dispersion patterns, using statistical methods, mapping, and geospatial analysis. Veterinary clinic records from Bogotá were analysed. The highest prevalence was observed in the Antonio Nariño district. Furthermore, dog breeds such as French Poodle and mixed breeds, as well as female dogs aged 8 years or older, were found to have the highest incidence of the disease. Spatial clusters of specific tumour types were found, suggesting possible territorial influences on the distribution.
