How is total lung capacity calculated?
Total lung capacity is calculated by adding together the vital capacity (the maximum amount of air exhaled after a maximum inhalation) and the residual volume (the amount of air remaining in the lungs after a maximum exhalation). This calculation gives the total volume of air that the lungs can hold at the end of a maximum inhalation.

What is the equation to measure lung volume?
The equation to measure lung volume is Total Lung Capacity (TLC) = Vital Capacity (VC) + Residual Volume (RV). TLC represents the maximum amount of air the lungs can hold, VC is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a deep inhalation, and RV is the amount of air that remains in the lungs after maximum exhalation.
