The research was performed on tumour tissues removed from 42 dogs, as well as blood samples drawn from dogs suffering from skin and subcutaneous tissue tumours and healthy dogs comprising the control group. The tumour specimens were preserved in 10% buffered formalin for 24 h. The tumour types were classified according to the official WHO classification. Immunohistochemical staining was performed in order to render the vascular endothelium visible. In the quantitative analysis of the blood vessels, a system of computer assisted microscopic analysis was utilised. The blood was centrifuged and the obtained plasma was labelled for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The test results were read with the use of a TECAN microplate reader and Magellan 4.0 software, allowing for curvilinear characteristic. It was found that the level of the vascularisation of malignant tumours is higher than that of benign tumours, and correlates with a high level of VEGF in blood plasma.
