According to the New Scientist dogs can smell cancer. My Father, a Radiologist, has claimed that he can smell it on occasion as well....(Pull any A therefore B logic on this one and I'll break both your legs)
Apparently, the dogs have a near 100% success rate with lung cancer and a near 90% success rate with breast cancer.

Dogs do as well as state-of-the-art screening tests at sniffing out people with lung or breast cancer. The research raises the possibility that trained dogs could detect cancers even earlier and might some day supplement or even replace mammograms and CT scans in the laboratory.
