奥地利研究人员5日发布一项试点研究结果报告,显示狗擅长闻出肺癌。报告的作者之一、奥地利北部克雷姆斯医院肺科主任彼得·埃尔哈特说,狗能通过气味识别出肿瘤病人。埃尔哈特说,一些狗在测试时从120份呼气样本中识别癌症病人的样本,准确率为70%;这一结果“振奋人心”。研究人员表示,接下来将开始一项为期两年、规模比先前大10倍的研究。这一研究结果与狗在癌症病人身边行为怪异的坊间证据
Austrian researchers released a pilot study on the 5th report shows that dogs excel at lung cancer. Peter Earhart, director of pulmonary surgery at Krems Hospital in northern Austria, one of the authors of the report, said dogs can identify cancer patients with odors. Erhardt said some dogs were able to identify samples of cancer patients from 120 breath samples at the time of testing, with an accuracy of 70%; the result was “heartening.” The researchers said that the next two years will start, the scale is 10 times larger than the previous study. The results of this study are closely related to the dog’s strange behavior in the side of cancer patients
