Accuracy of a new innovative column-free miniaturized gas-mass spectrometer compared with a classic gas-mass spectrometer to diagnose and monitor Helicobacter pylori infection: a prospective single blind study
Our experience highlights the potential for introducing new diagnostic tools that are less demanding in terms of cost and labour, without compromising diagnostic accuracy. To our knowledge, this is the first time that an innovative diagnostic tool proves to be as compact and as reliable; for this reason, it deserves to be implemented in clinical practice.
