What Does 40% Lung Capacity In A Pulmonary Test Report Indicate?
Question: Does 40 % lung capacity in a pulmonary test means I have 20% in each lung or 40 % in each lung?
Brief Answer:
Hello. That's 40% total lung capacity
Detailed Answer:
Hello. The test measures total lung capacity--neither lung is measured separately. If you have all the measurements, I can go over them with you.
Please upload them at the reports section
Regards
