‘Optical Dog’s **se’ Developed to Detect Disease, Infections Through Breath Analysis (VIDEO)
[IMG]http://cdn.medgadget.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/electronic-dogs-**se.png[/IMG]It has been*long k**wn that malignant tissues release chemicals that are different from***rmal tissues, and dogs have the ability to sniff out some of these subtle differences in Breath samples. Australian researchers at the University of Adelaide are **w on the road to developing a laser system that can analyze a person’s Breath and screen for a variety of diseases including cancer, Infections and diabetes, mimicking the abilities of dogs. The study, published in the journal Optics Express, describes the development of a fast, **n-invasive laser-based system for optical Analysis of the molecules in patients’ breath.
The laser is called an optical frequency comb, a device that*at the same time flashes light beams of different frequencies at the air sample. The*composition*of the Breath modulates and attenuates this light in different ways, and finding relevant markers within the resulting light beams may help spot disease. The researchers are **w working on a way*sample and interpret the results from several patients and account for sample variability. The product is expected to be commercialized in the next two to three years.
