Choose one
Vital capacity is defined as the volume of gas exhaled from total lung capacity (TLC) to functional residual capacity (FRC).

Vital capacity can be measured during inspiration or expiration and reflects the difference in volume between total lung capacity (TLC) and residual volume (RV).
Vital capacity measurement is effort-independent.
