High-resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) Evaluation of Airway Distensibility in Lung Transplant Recipients
Completed
Conditions studied: Unspecified Complication of Lung Transplant
In brief
Lung and heart-lung recipients at the University of Texas Medical Branch who have participated in the "Assessment of Cough Reflex in Lung Transplant Recipients" study who meet the specific study inclusion/exclusion criteria will have one study visit where they will undergo lung volume measurements, followed by high resolution CT scan of the lungs within 2 hours. After the initial CT scan, patients will be given a standard dose of Atrovent, followed thirty minutes later by repeat lung volume measurements and CT scan.
