Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation. The term encompasses both obstructive and restrictive phenotypes, as well as mixed and undefined phenotypes. Imaging, in addition to pulmonary function tests, plays a major role in identifying the CLAD phenotype and is essential for follow-up after lung transplantation. Quantitative imaging allows for the performing of reader-independent precise evaluation of CT examinations. In this review article, we will discuss the role of quantitative imaging methods for evaluating the airways and the lung parenchyma on computed tomography (CT) images, for an early identification of CLAD and for prognostic estimation. We will also discuss their limits and the need for novel approaches to predict, understand, and identify CLAD in its early stages.
