description The use of thoracic ultrasound (TUS) is a novel and dynamic diagnostic and monitoring modality that has shown remarkable advances within the last decade, with several published papers investigating its role within the field of lung transplantation. The aim of this current opinion review is to review the existing literature on the role of TUS in all stages of LTx, from in-donor lung evaluation to graft assessment on ex vivo lung perfusion and in the short- and long-term follow-up after LTx.
