Diagnostic Potential of a Multisensor Gas Analysis System and Artificial Intelligence for Upper Respiratory Tract Cancer. A Single-Center Study Results

Abstract

Exhaled breath analysis represents a promising non-invasive approach for diagnosing laryngeal, oral cavity, and pharyngeal cancers. This method is based on the premisethat ca ncer cel l metabolism differs from healthy cells, resultingin the production of specific volatile organic compounds.
