Lung and heart-lung transplantation have evolved into successful therapeutic options in patients with end-stage cardiopulmonary disease. Imaging studies extend from pretransplant evaluation to posttransplant monitoring for complications. Although many radiologic features are considered nonspecific, improved understanding of underlying pathologic and physiologic conditions unique to this population will enhance the clinical impact of the radiologist involved in a transplantation program.
肺移植和心肺联合移植已发展成为终末期心肺疾病患者成功的治疗选择。影像学检查从移植前评估延伸至移植后并发症监测。尽管许多放射学特征被认为是非特异性的，但对这一人群特有的潜在病理和生理状况的进一步了解将增强参与移植项目的放射科医生的临床影响力。
