Diagnosis by Volatile Organic Compounds in Exhaled Breath from Lung Cancer Patients Using Support Vector Machine Algorithm

Abstract: Abstract:Monitoring exhaled breath is a very attractive, noninvasive screening technique for early diagnosis of diseases, especially lung cancer. However, the technique provides insufficient accuracy because the exhaled air has many crucial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at very low concentrations (ppb level). We analyzed the breath exhaled by lung cancer patients and healthy subjects (controls) using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and performed a subsequent statistical analysis to diagnose l… Show more

“…Breath gas mainly contains nitrogen and carbon dioxide produced by respiration. It consists of more than 100 gas species with different concentrations, which may provide useful information for early diagnosis of disease [ 69 ]. However, breath test has some drawbacks, such as insufficient accuracy because exhaled air has many crucial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at very low concentrations and there is no clear protocol for breath sampling [ 70 ].…”

“…They also performed a subsequent statistical analysis to detect lung cancer by combining various VOCs. Their research findings indicated that the five-element VOC pattern of CHN, methanol, CH3CN, isoprene, and 1-propanol is sufficient for 89% screening accuracy [ 69 ].…”

“…SVM is a supervised model for linear regression analysis on nonlinear data sets. SVM-based classification of samples in the analysis of metabolite profiles from GC-MS and LC-MS has been reported, 18,19 but efficient SVM models optimized for TOF-SIMS data analysis using clinical samples have not yet been defined.…”
