  		FIGURE 1. Relative perfusion (RP) of transplanted lung and FEV1 values before transplantation and early (1–3 mo) after transplantation. Max = maximal value; Min = minimal value; Pre Tx = before transplantation. Number of data points in each group represents available data for that group (Table 2).
