Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that threatens >10 million people annually. Despite advances in TB diagnostics, patients continue to receive insufficient diagnosis as symptoms are not specific. Many existing biodiagnostic tests slow, have low clinical performance, and can be unsuitable for resource-limited settings. According the World Health Organization (WHO), a rapid, sputum-free, cost-effective triage test real-time detection of urgently needed. This article reports on new...
Detecting Tuberculosis from Skin Headspace In article number 2100235, Hossam Haick and co-workers report on a new diagnostic approach for enabling noninvasive, fast, highly accurate way of detecting Tuberculosis. The relies Tuberculosis-specific volatile biomarkers that are detected quantified the skin headspace. A specifically designed lab-based wearable sensors array in conjugation with machine learning translates detection these into point-of-care diagnosis sensitivity above 90%.
Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that threatens >10 million people annually. Despite advances in TB diagnostics, millions of patients continue to receive insufficient diagnosis, as symptoms are not specific. Many existing bio-diagnostic tests slow, have low sensitivity and/or specificity, and can be too expensive or complex for resource-limited settings. Early diagnosis contributes morbidity mitigation prevents the spread. Here, we report on a new physiological pathway...
