Summary

Professor Hossam Haick from the Technion, developed an electronic nose for diagnosis of diseases via breath samples.

Biomarkers from nose and sinuses and upper respiratory tract can be detected by "electronic nose".

Identification of biomarkers from nose and sinuses and upper respiratory tract can differentiate between the subtypes of CRS (Chronic rhinosinusitis) and may serve as markers for disease (vs controls), of disease activity (predicting aggressive disease course, predicting Malignant vs Benign nasal "polyps", as inverted papillpma or carcinoma; predicting response to therapy (Steroid , Antibiotics, Nasal wash, Surgery).
