Concentration distributions of acetone (determined by PTR-MS) in exhaled breath of lung carcinoma patients (red) and healthy volunteers (green). The concentration is shown in logarithmic scaling. The median concentration of acetone in exhaled breath of cancer patients is 458.7 ppb, whereas in healthy controls it is 627.5 ppb. (significantly different according Kruskal-Wallis test; p-value = 0.001).
