LUNG HEALTH EXAMINATION
Thu, 13 Apr 2023There are various types of examinations to diagnose lung health, including:
1. Complete Blood Count
To detect infections in the body and estimate the causative factors, whether they come from bacteria, viruses, or fungi.
2. Chest X-ray PA
To determine pneumonia itself and which areas of the lungs are affected.
3. Spirometry Examination
An examination that functions to see the capacity of the lungs. So, if there is suspicion of lung disease, this examination is one that can support the diagnosis.
4. CT Scan of the Lungs
Detects the condition of the affected lungs and is a more detailed examination than X-rays.
