Scientists have developed an advanced electronic nose, dubbed the "e-nose," capable of detecting life-threatening diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and infections through the analysis of a patient's breath. This innovative device, created by researchers from the University of Technology Sydney and the University of Cambridge, uses an array of sensors to identify specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are indicative of various diseases. The e-nose can differentiate between the breath profiles of healthy individuals and those with conditions like lung cancer, offering a non-invasive, rapid, and potentially cost-effective diagnostic tool. The technology aims to provide early detection, which is crucial for improving patient outcomes, and could eventually be integrated into routine medical check-ups or used in remote areas where access to sophisticated medical equipment is limited.
