What is Pulmonary Function Testing?
Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT) measures how well your lungs work. It evaluates lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. This testing is vital for diagnosing conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory disorders that can affect heart health.

The Procedure
