Pulmonary Function Testing

Pulmonary function tests are a group of tests done to evaluate the function of your lungs. These tests measure how much and how easily air moves in and out of your lungs.

Cardiac Stress Testing

One way your doctor can see if chest pain is a sign of coronary artery disease. A stress test can also predict the chance for future heart attacks in a person who has suffered a first heart attack; it can determine general fitness and can detect some heart rhythm problems.
