various ways. Animals share the same diseases as humans like cancer, high blood pressure, and other common diseases. Animals need the same medications as humans do. Cancer is one of the treatments which have been developed by animal testing.

testing, especially in the field of autosomal dominate diseases. Major breakthroughs in this field have produced ethical and moral dilemmas for physicians; conflicts between a patients’ autonomy vs. beneficence and nonmaleficence (doing what’s best for the patient), which has made counseling patients who have severe genetic disorders like Huntington’s disease very difficult.
