The respiratory system is involved in many diseases. Pulmonary Function tests represent a significant tool in our ability to evaluate and diagnose pulmonary conditions. Please discuss all of the components of pulmonary function testing, and discuss the findings one would see with a particular diagnosis of your choosing (asthma, COPD, emphysema, left sided heart failure, cor pulmonale, etc).
