Martina Pecoraro: Rome / ItalvAuthor Block: M. Pecoraro, S. Novelli, E. Messina, L. Laschena, C. Catalano, V. Panebianco; Rome/ITPurpose: This study aimed to deliver novel, cost-effective, evidence-based, non-invasive predictive risk-adapted diagnostic pathways for faster, earlier, more precise, accessible, and affordable detection and screening of prostate cancer. Methods or Background: A prospective single-centre cohort study, enrolling […]
Lo Sasso A., Bellantuono L., Facchini L., Amato E., Porcelli F., Frascella P., Bellotti R. Prostate cancer stands as the most prevalent cancer among males in Italy, comprising 18.5% of all male cancer diagnoses. Nearly a quarter of men receive a prostate cancer diagnosis between ages 50 and 60. Detecting this cancer early could potentially […]

Lo Sasso A., Bellantuono L., Facchini L., Sanitate D., Porcelli F., Gigante A., Bellotti R. Our research aims at studying the onset of cancer diseases through the analysis of breath. By determining the abundance of around 250 molecules present in the human breath, obtained through gas chromatography – mass spectrometry, we have studied the cases […]
