What is pulmonary plethysmography and what is it used for?
Pulmonary plethysmography (body box) is the most complete and sophisticated pulmonary function test. It measures all lung volumes, including the residual volume (RV), which is the only one that cannot be measured with conventional spirometry. It is essential in the diagnosis and follow-up of severe COPD, emphysema, pulmonary fibrosis, and restrictive diseases. It detects air trapping and hyperinflation that spirometry cannot quantify.
How is it performed?
The patient sits in an airtight glass-walled booth and performs specific breathing maneuvers. The pressure changes inside the booth allow all lung volumes to be calculated. The exam lasts between 45 and 60 minutes, with results available the same day.
