I'm trying to understand the details of my recent report. It mentions my heart size is normal, my lungs show prominent broncho vascular markings, and both domes and costophrenic angles are clear. Can you explain what this all means and if theres anything I should be concerned about?

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She had blood in her vomit, and an X-ray showed an infection. Our general doctor advised a CT scan, which revealed a cavity in her lungs. We did a sputum test to check for TB, but it came back negative. While she's undergoing further checks, I'm just really anxious to understand what other tests might help pinpoint the root cause of this. She's 31, so any insight would be really helpful.
