:Canine lymphoma is most commonly'''multicentric''', therefore the ideal method for collecting a sample for cytological examination is '''fine needle aspiration of the lymph nodes'''. Ideally samples should come from '''multiple nodes''' to give a representative sample. '''Popliteal''' and '''prescapular lymph nodes''' are easily accessible and therefore ideal for sampling. Submandibular lymph nodes should be avoided where possible as they are commonly enlarged and reactive as a result of dental disease. It should be noted that canine lymphoma can occur in any organ containing lymphoid tissue.
