First seen Jan 12, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study is testing whether specially trained dogs can detect bladder cancer by smelling urine samples. Researchers will collect urine from 340 adults scheduled for bladder surgery and see how often the dogs correctly identify cancer. If it works, this could lead to a simple, non-invasive screening method.
