Episode description


What if you could screen your dog for cancer—before any symptoms appear?


In this episode of the VetEd Podcast, Steven Hermann and Kale Flaspohler welcome Dr. Tom Butera and Daniel Shears from Volition Veterinary to discuss a groundbreaking innovation: Nu.Q®, an affordable, blood-based screening test designed to detect cancer early in dogs.


Volition’s revolutionary approach to cancer diagnostics uses epigenetics—looking beyond DNA to the expression of genes—to catch diseases like lymphoma and hemangiosarcoma before clinical signs appear. The test is already being used in over 22 countries, with more than 120,000 tests run and growing.


👉 Learn how this test works, how it integrates into everyday wellness exams, and why it’s a game-changer for pet longevity, veterinary practice profitability, and client peace of mind.


If you’re a veterinarian, pet owner, or just love animals, this episode is a must-listen.
