Smokers are mainly affected by lung diseases and several therapies are also administered to control smoking. The spirometer is the instrument used to detect the functioning of the lung. It is used to check the amount of air entering the lungs and the amount of air leaving. The spirometer is used to detect COPD and monitor treatment. The diagnosis of pulmonary diseases can be carried out through tests such as biopsy, blood test, bronchoscopy, sputum test and computed tomography.
