Definitions:

Vital Capacity (VC)

The maximum amount of air a person can exhale after a maximum inhalation, measuring lung health and function.

Pulmonary Fibrosis

A lung disease that occurs when lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred, leading to severe breathing difficulties.

Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)

The maximum volume of air that can be inhaled beyond the normal tidal volume inhalation, used in pulmonary function testing.

Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV)

The maximum volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled after the expiration of a normal tidal volume.
