Combining trained detection dogs indications with a Bayesian framework incorporating historical dog performance and participants features yielded 90.8% sensitivity & 91.3% specificity for multicancer detection from breath. Truly the human’s best friend! 🐶 ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

got profesh shots of the pack, all looking dapper now









Can dogs detect cancer from breath? 🐶 This JCO Phase II study says: maybe. 🧪 Mask-based breath test 🐕 Detection dogs + Bayesian model Results (n=1,502): 🔥 Sens 90.8% 🔥 Spec 91.3% 📈 AUC 0.96 🌱 Early-stage ~91% Multicancer. Non-invasive. Low-cost. But ⚠️ case-control only No real-world screening data yet. 👉 Signal is big. Practice is not ready.
