Title: Determination of Unilateral Lung Function by Spirometry

Abstract

Patients with unilateral lung involvement were evaluated with Lateral Position Test (LPT).The severity of disease was quantitatively measured. This is the spirometric test which to a large extent accurately measures the percentage of differential ventilation of each lung. The paper discusses the method and its merits.
