ABSTRACT
Lung transplantation (LTx) is the gold standard treatment for end-stage lung disease; however, waitlist mortality remains high due to a shortage of suitable donor lungs. Organ quality can be compromised by lung

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Normothermic ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has been used successfully to evaluate and recondition marginal donor lungs; however, multiple barriers continue to prevent its widespread adoption. We
