Calculated indices of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhalation for #lung #cancer screening and early detection
Breath analysis is a promising noninvasive technique that offers a wide range of opportunities to facilitate early diagnosis of lung cancer (LC). Method Exhaled breath samples of 352 subjects including 160 with lung cancer (LC), 70 with benign pulmonary nodule (BPN) and 122 healthy controls (HC) were analyzed through thermal desorption coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC–MS) to obtain the metabolic information from volatile organic … Continue reading Calculated indices of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhalation for #lung #cancer screening and early detection
