Implementing the Three-Equation Method of Measuring Single Breath Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity

Conventional methods of measuring the single breath diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLcoSB) are based on the Krogh equation, which is valid only during breath holding. Rigid standardization is used to approximate a pure breath hold manoeuvre, but variations in performing the mano...
