Title: Nanosensor-based Gastric Cancer Prewarning and Early Diagnosis System
Abstract: 
Gastric cancer (GC) is one kind of common tumor affecting about one million people per year and the mortality ranks the second among all tumors. In China, only 5-10% early gastric cancer patients can be discovered, how to improve the diagnosis ratio of early gastric cancer has become a challenge problem. Herein, we reported some relative work in our group. Breath biomarker screening and detection method were developed to realize screening out early gastric cancer patients. Multifunctional nanoprobes were designed and prepared to realize multimode molecular imaging and simultaneous therapy of early gastric cancer, several nanoprobes were evaluated for their safety. These results lay foundation for further clinical translation. Keywords: gastric cancer, nanoprobes; breath biomarker; sensor; molecular imaging
