Spirometry evaluates lung function and is essential for diagnosing asthma or related symptoms like shortness of breath and wheezing.
You’ll breathe into a device that measures airflow and capacity.
The test may involve medication to assess changes in breathing.
Duration: 15–40 minutes, depending on whether medications are administered.
