The research and development of electronic noses has resulted in a new qualitative and semi-quantitative detection approach in the field of clinical diagnostics. Electronic noses have a clear potential to be a non-invasive, simple and rapid but above all accurate early diagnostic screening tool. This review collates existing knowledge of recent advances in electronic nose technologies and applications. %K Electronic Nose %K Biosensor %K Clinical Diagnosis %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=31243
