Device Detects Disease Even Before Tumours Become Visible In X-Rays London: Scientists working on a breath test to detect cancer said they were now able to identify different types of the disease,in research to be published on Wednesday.

Their preliminary results,to be printed in the British Journal of Cancer,showed the researchers sensors could distinguish whether a patient had lung,breast,bowel or prostate cancer,irrespective of age,gender or lifestyle.
