Question 1

I'm really anxious about my mom's recent chest pain. The doctor suggested a CT scan, and the report mentions something about alveolo fibrotic opacity in her left upper lobe and the superior segment of her right lower lobe. It also noted no pleural effusion thickening. Could you explain what all this means? I'm really worried about her.

Accepted Answer

Probable differential diagnosis include sarcoidosis,Silicosis,Langerhans cell histiocytosis,and pneumoconioses.etc , pulmonologist opinion is advised for further management.

Question 2

I'm really worried about my dad's CT HRCT report since he's 50 today, and I just don't fully understand it. The findings say things like "pulmonary interstitium is normal bilaterally," and theres no "nodular shadowing" or "ground glass haze." The report also mentions the "peribronchovascular tissue is unremarkable," which sounds like a good thing, but Im not sure. Plus, it says no "pleural effusion" or "calcification" is seen, and the "cardiovascular markings are of normal caliber." The impression just says "normal study." Does this mean everythings okay, and theres really nothing to worry about? Could you explain it so I can be sure Im understanding this right?

Accepted Answer

need not worry , its normal

Question 3

I've been dealing with a breathing issue for the past three months. I can breathe fine through my nose, but when I try using my mouth, it's like I can't get a full breath, and sometimes I feel a pain in my chest. It's been worrying me. Could there be something going on with my lungs or chest that I should get checked out?

Accepted Answer
