Pulmonary Care
Pulmonary Function Testing
We use state-of the-art Pulmonary Function Testing equipment with highly trained staff. We use a complete array of tests that can determine the condition of your airways, the resistance of airflow, lung volumes, the ability of your lungs to absorb and release oxygen and CO2, and how well your airways respond to breathing medications. We also offer Methacholine Challenge testing (Asthma diagnosis) and Cardio-Pulmonary Exercise Testing. The PFT lab is staffed by a highly trained and skilled Respiratory Therapist.
