Summary

Evaluation of respiratory function is considered a crucial component in the assessment of patients with a wide range of respiratory diseases. Spirometry is considered a common method of measuring pulmonary function. Recently, Transthoracic ultrasound yields important diagnostic information within minutes. Respiratory muscle ultrasound is used to evaluate the anatomy and function of the respiratory system.

Conditions

• Lung Ultrasound
• Spirometry
• Respiratory Diseases
• Diaphragm Ultrasound
