Summary

To evaluate the suitability of two odour capturing techniques for early detection of skin cancer.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME)

A SPME fibre is held directly above skin cancer, or healthy skin for a period of less than 30 minutes to capture VOCs. No drug will be used. This is to investigate the capability of the technique in capturing VOCs.

OTHER

Absorptive patch

An adsorptive patch, covering skin cancer and healthy skin sites will be applied for a period of maximum 30 minutes to capture VOCs. No drug will be used. This is to investigate the capability of the technique in capturing VOCs.
