Types of Pulmonary Function Tests We Offer
1. Spirometry
Spirometry is one of the most common pulmonary function tests and measures how much air you can inhale and exhale, as well as how quickly you can exhale. This test is often used to assess conditions like asthma, COPD, and other obstructive lung diseases.
2. Lung Volume Measurement
This test helps determine how much air your lungs can hold. It is useful in diagnosing restrictive lung diseases, which can cause the lungs to become stiff and reduce their ability to expand fully.
3. Diffusion Capacity Test (DLCO)
This test evaluates how well oxygen moves from your lungs into your bloodstream. It can be helpful in diagnosing diseases like pulmonary fibrosis or emphysema.
4. Arterial Blood Gas Test
This test measures the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide in your blood, helping to assess how well your lungs are functioning in terms of oxygenating your body and removing waste gases.
