The Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) is a non-invasive lung test that is performed to examine the functioning of the lungs. The PFT test helps to diagnose lung disorders and respiratory diseases. It also helps to decide and start the right treatment plan.
There are two main methods to do PFT. They are -
- Spirometry
- Plethysmography
Other name - Lung function test

Pulmonary function tests findings
Pulmonary function tests, or lung function tests are used to measure lung volume or capacity, the rate of the flow inside the lungs, and gas exchange. For people suffering from lung disorders or any kind of infection, the value differs.
