Summary
This study tested a new MRI method that uses 129Xenon gas to take detailed pictures of the lungs in people who have had a lung transplant. The goal was to see if this imaging can find early signs of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a common and serious long-term complication. Only 3 participants were enrolled, and the research focused on developing the imaging technique rather than treating the condition.
