Exhaled Breath Analysis: Current Status, Challenges and Future Perspectives presents the exhaled breath analysis process, starting with the fundamentals and background, moving to current approaches and applications, and concludes with challenges the field faces, along with the future outlook. The exhaled breath analysis process (EBAP) is dynamically changing, resulting in hard to follow research and conference papers, very often not covering the actual process. The book informs the reader on how to prepare research in the field, how to design the measurement protocol, and how to use biomarkers for analyzation, as well as the applications available for clinical practice.
Primarily written for biomedical engineers and medical doctors, the book is also useful for hospital technicians, as well as those in PhD level Medicine and Engineering courses.
