Breath analysis for clinical diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring

Breath analysis for clinical diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring / editors, Anton Amann, David Smith.

This book describes how the analysis of the trace gases in exhaled breath can be used for non-invasive clinical diagnosis of disease and for monitoring the effectiveness of therapy. This approach offers an important addition to the diagnostic techniques available to medicine, having the advantage th...
