DLCO or TLCO (Diffusing capacity or Transfer factor of the lung for carbon monoxide,) is the extent to which oxygen passes from the air sacs of the lungs into the blood. Commonly, it refers to the test used to determine this parameter. It was introduced in 1909.

This test involves measuring the partial pressure difference between inspired and expired carbon monoxide. It relies on the strong affinity and large absorption capacity of erythrocytes for carbon monoxide and thus demonstrates gas uptake by the capillaries that are less dependent on cardiac output.. The measurement of DLCO is affected by atmospheric pressure and/or altitude and correction factors can be calculated online. Expected DLCO is also affected by the amount of hemoglobin, age and sex and correction factors are available online.

DLCO is decreased in any condition which affects the effective alveolar surface area:

However, many modern devices compensates for the hemoglobin value of the patient (taken by blood test), and excludes it as a factor in the DLCO interpretation.
