Detecting Cancer in 90-seconds!

A Kerala-based deep-tech startup called Accubits Invent Pvt Ltd has developed a powerful new device named VolTrac that can detect cancer, tuberculosis (TB), and other diseases in just 90 seconds using your breath. Yes, no needles, no blood test, no painful procedures. You simply breathe into the device, and it analyzes special chemical markers in your breath to check for early signs of serious illnesses. This breakthrough innovation from Kerala is now gaining national attention for its speed, accuracy, and life-saving potential. The device works by detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a person’s breath. These tiny chemical signals change when diseases like cancer or TB develop inside the body. The startup claims the technology can identify these disease patterns quickly and with high accuracy. Early detection is extremely important because diseases like cancer and tuberculosis are much easier to treat when found in the early stages. A simple 90-second breath test could help millions of people get diagnosed faster and start treatment sooner. This innovation could be a game-changer for India’s healthcare system, especially in rural and remote areas where advanced testing facilities are limited. A fast, affordable, and non-invasive test can help doctors screen large numbers of people quickly. Many are calling it a proud moment for Kerala’s growing health-tech industry.
