Who should get Pulmonary Function Test done in Faridabad?

What conditions can Pulmonary Function Test help diagnose?

The test can confirm or exclude an inherited condition, identify whether a healthy person carries a gene that could affect their children, and sometimes guide treatment choice. Results often have implications for other family members, who may then choose to be screened. Abnormal results can come from airway inflammation, smoking, infections, lung scarring, or inadequate medication control. A family history of lung disease can make regular testing more important.
