Chronic lung allograft dysfunction: evolving practice.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) was recently introduced as an overarching term covering different phenotypes of chronic allograft dysfunction, including obstructive CLAD (bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome), restrictive CLAD (restrictive allograft syndrome) and graft dysfunction due to causes not related to chronic rejection. In the present review, we will highlight t...

Time Resolved Lung Ventilation Imaging by Fourier Decomposition

Results and Discussion: In summary, we have shown that MR ventilation imaging is possible without any exogen means like polarized gases, oxygen administration or contrast media. The very fast protocol and simple post processing technique allows the selective depiction of blood, stationaryand shifted tissue, it shows promise to improve the diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. The elegance of the Tru...
