When you breathe out, you’re not just releasing carbon dioxide. Your breath carries a complex mix of volatile organic compounds, or VOCs—tiny molecules that come from normal body processes. These ...
Molecules exhaled in the breath may help detect blood cancer, according to new research from Queen Mary University of London. The findings could enable the development of a blood cancer breathalyzer, ...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most challenging malignancies to treat. Further, PDAC incidence continues to rise, particularly in younger adults. Current technologies ...
The death rate for colorectal cancer has been dropping for more than 20 years, thanks to improved screening methods, according to the American Cancer Society. Yet it is still the second-leading cause ...
The next breakthrough in cancer screening is emerging from the convergence of artificial intelligence and canine biology. That’s the thesis behind SpotitEarly, a startup that recently launched in the ...
A new breath test could “revolutionise” care for pancreatic cancer patients, experts have said. In what is a world-first initiative, the breath test is being trialled for the disease which is ...
Researchers have developed a nanoscale sensor that detects lung cancer simply by analyzing the levels of a chemical called isoprene in your breath. The team believes its breakthrough could unlock a ...
An experimental portable device might be able to detect lung cancer from a person's exhaled breath, researchers report. The device contains "nanoflake" sensors that can detect small changes in the ...
A multicenter prospective study validated that an electronic nose (eNose) can accurately detect lung cancer in individuals with suspected disease. In the validation cohort, a new eNose model achieved ...
In the UK, around 40,000 people are diagnosed with blood cancer and around 16,000 people die of the disease each year. Diagnosing blood cancers can be challenging as early symptoms are often ...
