A pulmonary function test (PFT) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that measures how well your lungs work. It assesses lung volumes, capacities, rates of flow, and gas exchange. PFTs help diagnose lung diseases like asthma, COPD, and restrictive lung diseases, and monitor their progression and treatment effectiveness.
