Table 4.

Comparison of the measured and predicted postoperative pulmonary function values obtained using the FLV and SC methods

Variable Postoperative pulmonary function SC FLV
FVC (L) 2.58 ± 0.59 2.29 ± 0.49* 2.31 ± 0.46*
FEV1 (L) 2.05 ± 0.51 1.89 ± 0.46 1.90 ± 0.44

FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FLV, functional lung volume; FVC, forced vital capacity; SC, segment-counting
