Dogs from Milton Keynes charity trained to sniff out prostate cancer

Dogs from Milton Keynes charity trained to sniff out prostate cancer Dogs can detect the most aggressive forms of prostate cancer and could help develop a "robotic nose" to find the disease in the future, a study says.

Under an international research programme, a Labrador, Florin, and a vizsla, Midas, sniffed out the cancer's odour in urine samples from patients.

They were trained to find the most lethal tumours by Medical Detection Dogs, a Milton Keynes charity. BBC News
