Description
Summary:The breathomics approach to express-diagnosis of bronchopulmonary diseases based on spectral analysis of volatile organic compounds in a patient’s exhaled air is discussed. The basic demands and possible technical solutions to laser photoacoustic spectroscopy equipment in a framework of breathomics are presented. An example of differential diagnostics of the set of bronchopulmonary diseases, including lung cancer (LC) patients (N = 9); patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (N = 12); patients with pneumonia (N = 11) and a control group of healthy volunteers using breath air analysis by laser photoacoustic spectroscopy and machine learning is presented.
