Conditions

For Lung Transplant Recipients, For Oncologic Patients, From 5 Months Onwards, Potentially Operable Lung Tumor, Single of Bilateral Lung Transplant, With a Recent (Less Than 1 Month) VQ Scan, With Recent (Less Than 1 Month) Respiratory Functional Explorations

Brief summary

Demonstrate the feasibility of dual energy computed tomography using Krypton as a gaseous contrast media in order to study the in vivo ventilation. Two different clinical situations will be tested : * Prediction of postoperative pulmonary function for oncologic patients * Detection of Bronchiolitis Obliterans in lung transplant recipients.
