Abstract
The odors coming from the patient are an important diagnostic sign of the disease they have. Doctors, due to their lack of relevant knowledge, cannot take advantage of this diagnostic feature. This article aims to fill this gap.
The article analyzes and summarizes current knowledge about the chemical and clinical aspects of volatile organic compounds released by the body in diseases of the body, as well as methods of their instrumental detection.

Keywords: biomarker, disease, odor, volatile organic compound, sense of smell
