Rationale: An ambulatory chest should be evaluated for inclusion of the entire lung field, no rotation at the SC joints, removal of scapulae from the lung field and a minimum of 10 ribs above the diaphragm.

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
