Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT)

At Smyrna Pulmonary & Sleep Associates (SPSA), we provide comprehensive pulmonary function testing (PFT) at all of our clinic locations. These specialized tests measure how well your lungs work and help our providers diagnose, monitor, and manage a wide range of lung conditions.

Why Pulmonary Function Testing Matters

  • Detects and monitors asthma, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and other lung diseases.
  • Measures lung volumes, airflow, and oxygen exchange.
  • Helps guide treatment decisions and evaluate response to therapy.
  • Provides critical information before surgery or advanced procedures.

  • Comfortable, private testing rooms with modern equipment.
  • A plethysmography booth (glass cabin) for advanced lung volume measurement.
  • Spirometry and diffusion testing to evaluate airflow and oxygen transfer.
