Trained Labrador Can Sniff Out Colon Cancer, Researchers Say

But can dogs find colon cancer in humans?

With powers of smell far superior to those of humans, dogs can sniff out buried earthquake victims. They can unearth hidden bombs or drugs. They can also apparently detect colorectal cancer, Japanese researchers suggest.

That's the trick.

Probably more research is needed.

A real advantage would be (dog?) house calls. Or beach canine booty calls.



A kind of "drive by" colon cancer check.
