“…For a few years now, medical professionals have been discussing the extent to which altered bodily odors can serve as an early indicator of a budding illness, including cancer. Dogs allegedly have a particularly refined ability to sense an onset of cancer (e.g., Guirao Montes et al, 2017; Yoel, Gopas, Ozer, Peleg, & Shvartzman, 2015). And surprisingly, it is precisely these animals with sensitive noses that do not react with disgust to the smell of serious mouth cancers.…”

“…Nevertheless, the 5-year survival rate after surgical resection of stage III patients is only 5–20% while stage I patients was up to 60–90%. Therefore, if proper methods for early-stage disease diagnosis can be found, especially by developing novel material-based breath sensor approaches with highly selective and ultrasensitive capabilities, biomarker monitoring can be greatly improved. However, the screening of lung cancer breath biomarkers has still been a challenge because of the absence of unified sampling and analyzing methods, small sample size, and individual differences in patients.…”
