Figure 3 Photo depicting the early stages of ex vivo lung perfusion. After the acellular perfusate is pumped through the pulmonary artery (yellow) and out through the left atrium (green), the lungs are warmed to 32°C, the endotracheal tube is unclamped, and protective ventilation is begun.

Abs = antibodies; BOS = bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome; CHF = congestive heart failure; CLAD = chronic lung allograft dysfunction; GERD = gastroesophageal reflux disease; HFpEF = heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; HLA = human leukocyte antigen.
