Functional Pulmonary Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Detection of Ischemic Injury in a Porcine Ex-Vivo Lung Perfusion System Prior to Transplantation
ConclusionMultiparametric pulmonary MRI is feasible in lung allografts within an EVLP system. Oxygen-enhanced imaging seems to be a promising marker for ischemic injury, enabling detection of affected lung segments prior to transplantation.
