PulmonaryTesting

Comprehensive assessment of lung function, gas exchange and respiratory performance, from foundational spirometry to advanced cardiopulmonary exercise testing.

Pulmonary Testing at Lifecore

Lungs you can rely on for life.

Lung capacity is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health. Our pulmonary service measures it accurately, identifies subtle dysfunction early, and integrates findings into the wider longevity, cardiology and performance plan.

Questions about pulmonary testing.

A few of the questions our guests ask most often. If you would like to explore something specific, our physicians are happy to talk it through with you.

  • Anyone with breathlessness, snoring, chronic cough or asthma, plus clients optimising endurance and longevity.

  • Standard spirometry takes around 20 minutes. CPET and sleep studies take longer and are explained in advance.

  • Most tests are quick and well tolerated. CPET requires effort but is closely supervised throughout.

  • Yes. Results are reviewed with you in plain language and translated into a specific plan.

  • Yes. We diagnose and manage sleep-disordered breathing, including CPAP titration where required.
