    Current diagnostic methods for invasive aspergillosis are time-consuming and poorly sensitive. Here, the authors show that positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluorosorbitol can visualize Aspergillus fumigatus infection of the lungs, brain and muscles in mouse models, and can distinguish pulmonary aspergillosis from other diseases such as Staphylococcus aureus infection and lung…

    We are aware that donors tobacco smoking history is quite common in the lung donor pool and several studies have investigated this aspect in order to understand whether this habit may influence the outcomes of recipients transplanted with lungs from smoking-donors [1,2].At the same time, there is very little literature focusing on donors’ marijuana smoking history as a factor affecting lung…
