Abstract
There has been limited examination of the performance of glomerular filtration rate estimation (eGFR) equations in lung transplant populations. This study aimed to compare the performance of serum creatinine and cystatin C based eGFR equations with Tc-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) GFR measurements in individuals with end-stage lung disease, either prior to, or following, lung transplantation.In this prospective observational...
