An 8-year-old female black Labrador from Chiba, Japan, began training for cancer detection in 2005. The training is simple and effective. The training was based on a reward, with a tennis ball awarded for each time a cancer sample was accurately identified from multiple breath samples. The breath samples were collected from hundreds of cancer patients and about 500 healthy volunteers.
In 2005, the training was divided into three steps. The first step was to put a breath sample from one oesophageal cancer patient and 4 control subjects into a paper cup covered with filter paper. Two days later, the dogs were asked to accurately bite the cup containing the odor of the oesophageal cancer patient from 5 samples. The dog will get a tennis ball if he succeeds. A few days later a respiratory sample of another cancer patient was trained
In the second step, the researchers randomly selected a patient with a breathing sample bag containing gas from esophageal or stomach cancer
Step three The dogs sniffed a sample of a cancer breath as a standard sample and then used the scent of the other cancer to identify the bag. The type of cancer was then increased and the control group continued to train
Now dogs have been able to identify many types of cancer and I think that's going to be very important for people to find and treat cancer ]]> 2020-10-20 11:23:39 UTC https://padlet.com/michellemottley_kaplan/7xo3s6naombf7th4/wish/844351100 michelle_mottley https://padlet.com/michellemottley_kaplan/7xo3s6naombf7th4/wish/844474745 2020-10-20 12:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/michellemottley_kaplan/7xo3s6naombf7th4/wish/844474745
