Pulmonary Function Tests
Dr Parthiv Shah
Lung function tests can be used to:
Compare your lung function with known standards that show how well your lungs should be working.
Measure the effect of chronic diseases like asthma, chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD), or cystic fibrosis on lung function.
Identify early changes in lung function that might show a need for a change in treatment.
