Pulmonary function testing evaluates lung performance, offering critical insights into respiratory health and the diagnosis of diseases like asthma and fibrosis. This book explains the principles of pulmonary function tests, including spirometry and gas diffusion studies. It links these tests to clinical conditions, discussing diagnostic criteria and therapeutic implications. With case examples, it bridges theoretical knowledge with real-world application.
Hunter Sanders is a pulmonary specialist whose work focuses on lung function and its role in overall health. His research examines how respiratory diseases like asthma and emphysema affect lung capacity and oxygenation. Hunter has published extensively on the diagnostic techniques used to assess pulmonary function. His work contributes to developing new treatments for chronic respiratory conditions and improving the management of acute pulmonary events. Hunter’s research continues to advance pulmonary care and diagnostics.
