Abstract：
:Lung transplantation is an accepted treatment for a large number of end-stage pulmonary diseases. There are several complications that pertain specifically to lung transplant recipients, including airway ischemia, reperfusion edema, infections, acute rejection, obliterative bronchiolitis, and other postoperative problems relating to surgical technique and immuno-suppressive therapy. Imaging procedures play an important role in the diagnosis and management of these problems.
