International Journal of Advances in Medicine, 2020 Forced vital capacity (FVC) and slow vital capacity (SVC) are non-invasive tests of respiratory function. Although FVC has been extensively studied and is used in most PFT (pulmonary function test) labs, SVC can also be used in clinical practice as it is a more comfortable and convenient test to perform.
