Abstract
The article provides an overview of the technical capabilities and updated standards for the study of diffusion capacity of the lungs using diagnostic systems using rapidly responding gas analyzers (RGA analyzers — rapidly responding gas analyzers) of carbon monoxide and indicator gas, presented by a joint working group of the European Respiratory Society (ERC) and the American Thoracic Society (ATS).
