Summary

The present study aims to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of exhaled breath analysis with the Aeonose (the eNose Company, Zutphen, the Netherlands) to distinguish the breath of patients suspected for CRC (based on a positive fecal immunochemical test), who are truly diagnosed with CRC, from patients suspected for CRC in whom this diagnosis is rejected after colonoscopy.

DEVICE

Aeonose

An electronic nose device is an artificial olfactory system that analyses volate organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled breath. The AeonoseTM is a handheld device of 650 gram. A nose clip will be used to prevent the entry of non-filtered air and patients will be instructed to enclose the mouthpiece with their mouth at all times. A measurement cycle lasts for about 15 minutes, of which 5 minutes of in-and exhalation by the patient takes place.
