A search for pionic color transparency effects in nuclear reactions is currently under experimental investigation. However, it is unclear if the transparency effect is greater than the effect of the momentum dependence of the nuclear pion content. We review the use of a semi-classical formula to compute pion transparency and discuss the use of pionic response in determining the relative importance of these two effects.
