title: [Considerations on bodyplethysmography (author's transl)].
abstract: Bodyplethysmography and spirometry are complementary methods in several respects. On the basis of measurements in 102 persons highly significant correlations between body plethysmographical and spirometrical results in the assessment of restrictive and obstructive ventilatory defects as well as of increased residual volume are shown. Differences between the results of both methods are looked upon as useful informations.
