About
Dr. S. Ettinger is a leading veterinary radiation oncologist whose work has transformed the treatment of canine cancers, particularly through the application of advanced stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Her key research areas include image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), and comparative oncology. Dr. Ettinger’s major contribution is demonstrating that an image-guided robotic radiosurgery system can safely deliver curative-intent, hypofractionated radiation to dogs with nonlymphomatous nasal tumors—a challenging anatomical site. Her landmark 2014 study, which has garnered 31 citations, established a new standard of care by showing that single or few-dose treatments can achieve tumor control while sparing healthy tissue. This work has not only improved survival and quality of life for canine patients but also provided a valuable comparative model for human cancer therapy. Dr. Ettinger’s research bridges veterinary and human medicine, highlighting the translational potential of precision radiation techniques. Her achievements have made her a sought-after expert in veterinary radiation oncology, and her publications continue to guide clinicians in delivering effective, minimally invasive treatments for companion animals.
