Non‐Invasive Diagnosis of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy by Breath

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The use of sensor technologies for the diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath samples. By combining gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) and electronic nose (eNose) platforms, specific VOC patterns associated with HCM are detected and analyzed.
