About

Evaluation of respiratory function is considered a crucial component in the assessment of patients with a wide range of respiratory diseases. Spirometry is considered a common method of measuring pulmonary function. Recently, Transthoracic ultrasound yields important diagnostic information within minutes. Respiratory muscle ultrasound is used to evaluate the anatomy and function of the respiratory system.
