Pulmonary elimination of volatile molecules (so-called volatile organic compounds (VOCs)) is altered in a variety of pulmonary and nonpulmonary diseases [1].

We hypothesized that an electronic nose (eNose) provides a reliable and continuous read-out of changes in patterns of exhaled VOCs (so-called breathprints). …
