Canine cancer detection is an approach to cancer screening that relies upon the claimed olfactory ability of dogs to detect, in urine or in breath, very low concentrations of the alkanes and aromatic compounds generated by malignant tumors.
While some research has been promising, no verified studies by secondary research groups have substantiated the validity of positive, conclusive results.
