Lung Volume Measurement

2021
Static lung volumes are commonly described as volumes or capacities. Volumes are not subdivided and include tidal volume (Vt), inspiratory reserve volume (IRV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), and residual volume (RV). However, capacities consist of at least two lung volumes and include total lung capacity (TLC), vital capacity (VC), functional ...

Measurement of Lung Volumes

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2009
Lung volume measurements always determine total lung capacity (TLC), and most measurement techniques also determine functional residual capacity (FRC) and residual volume (RV). These measurements are needed less often than spirometry-derived values and require somewhat more difficult methods than required by spirometry.

Reproducibility of lung volume measurements

European Respiratory Journal, 1998
Test reproducibility is an important consideration when interpreting results and should be set as a goal during data collection. Reproducibility criteria may need to be different for different subject groups and are instrument and procedure-dependent. Ideally, the within-subject variability for each lung volume and measurement technique used should be ...

In vivo measurement of lung volumes in mice

Physiological Genomics, 2001
We describe longitudinal measurements of functional residual capacity (FRC) in breathing mice using a clinical computed tomography (CT) scanner. Lungs of anesthetized mice from the A/J and C3H/HeJ strains were scanned over a 10-s period. Using a fixed threshold for CT density, we could accurately and reproducibly obtain the amount of air in the lungs ...

Lung Volumes

Chest, 2012
Measurement of lung volumes is an integral part of complete pulmonary function testing. Some lung volumes can be measured during spirometry; however, measurement of the residual volume (RV), functional residual capacity (FRC), and total lung capacity (TLC) requires special techniques. FRC is typically measured by one of three methods.

Measurement of Lung Volumes

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1989
Measurements of lung volume play an integral role in the laboratory evaluation of patients with known or suspected lung disease. Several techniques are available to measure absolute lung volumes (containing residual volume). It should be noted that these techniques measure different theoretical volumes and may produce different results in patients with
