a chest x-ray is done for my 7 years old son the report says: bilateral hilar congestion with accentuations of lung markings more at lower zones associated with slight hyperinflation of both lungs -suggested small ill-defined opacity at the left lower lung zone What does this mean
Hi...by what you quote I feel that the Chest X-ray might be indicative of a left lower lobe pneumonia. But it all depends on the indication for which the CXR was initially ordered by the treating physician. Regards -
