When you go in for your mamogram, you'll just breathe on the dog.

Oh, that is seriously cool!

I'm thrilled to see this kind of research - partly because I hope it will encourage a lot more people to get mammograms (anything that doesn't hurt is more likely to get done, I would think), and partly because it's so non-invasive.

I have to confess, as well, that I will be getting my first mammo this year (I turn 35 in June) and am somewhat nervous about the whole thing.

Good luck with the mammo. Don't be too nervous: the alternative is unbearable.

I'm hoping they may come up with something for prostate and teticular cancers. Just wizz in a cup for the dog.

Dogs, Bat spit anticoagulants... soon dorctor's surgeries will look like a vets.

Thanks, and believe me, I'll get the thing regardless of how I feel. Both my grandmothers had breast cancer and my mom had an anomalous lumpy thing a few years ago (which disappeared when they went to biopsy it), so I don't plan on taking any chances.
