Scientists develop groundbreaking breath test for early lung cancer detection using advanced nanosensor technology, offering hope for improved survival rates through early diagnosis.

Since the programme's launch, in 2019, 5,037 lung cancers have been detected, with 76% of those at the earliest stages of the disease. People are nearly 20 times more likely to survive for five years if their cancer is detected early, experts say.

An experimental portable device might be able to detect lung cancer from a person's exhaled breath, researchers report.

Researchers have developed a nanoscale sensor that detects lung cancer simply by analyzing the levels of a chemical called isoprene in your breath. The team believes its breakthrough could unlock a non-invasive,
