Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT).
More than 25 million Americans are living each day with chronic lung disease.
With the help of technologically advanced equipment and our highly experienced physician, Atlantic Lung Centers is able to provide patients with the diagnosis and treatment they need to live full and healthy lives.
Pulmonary Function Testing
Pulmonary function testing is a major step in assessing the functional status of the lungs. Testing includes a wide array of measurements designed to evaluate the status of structural components of the lung and its capabilities.
At Atlantic Lung Centers, our patients have the convenience of our state-of-the-art onsite pulmonary lab for accurate and convenient pulmonary function testing.
Pulmonary function testing is important for the screening of:
-
The presence of lung disease or abnormality of lung function
-
The extent of abnormalities and the causative disease process
-
The extent of disability due to abnormal lung function
-
The progression of the disease
-
The type of disease or lesion
-
A course of therapy in the treatment of the particular condition
For years, Atlantic Lung Centers has been diagnosing and treating patients who suffer from pulmonary disease. We are the most comprehensive pulmonary diagnostic and treatment resource center in Middle Georgia with state-of-the-art testing equipment and a testing lab onsite, offering the most effective and convenient care for our patients.
