Artificial intelligence outperforms pulmonologists in the interpretation of pulmonary function tests

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2019
The interpretation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) to diagnose respiratory diseases is built on expert opinion that relies on the recognition of patterns and the clinical context for detection of specific diseases.

Pulmonary Function Testing in Office Practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
With the wide availability of simple to operate pulmonary function equipment, these tests can now be performed in the office or clinic setting. The use of pulmonary function tests in the assessment of patients with pulmonary diseases has thus expanded.

Pulmonary function tests as outcomes for systemic sclerosis interstitial lung disease

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2018
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic sclerosis (SSc). We performed a systematic review to characterise the use and validation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) as surrogate markers for systemic ...

Quantitative CT analysis in patients with pulmonary emphysema: is lung function influenced by concomitant unspecific pulmonary fibrosis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose: Quantitative analysis of CT scans has proven to be a reproducible technique, which might help to understand the pathophysiology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema.

The Mid-Term Changes of Pulmonary Function Tests After Phrenic Nerve Transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: In the restoration of elbow flexion, the phrenic nerve has proven to be a good donor, but considering the role of the phrenic nerve in respiratory function, we cannot disregard the potential dangers of this method.
