I've been told I have a prominent hilar shadow and bronchovascular marking in both of my lungs. I'm really curious about what that means for my health and what steps I should take next. Can you help explain these terms and suggest what should be done about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A prominent hilar shadow and bronchovascular markings on both lungs can indicate inflammation or changes in the lung structures. It's important to follow up with a chest X-ray or CT scan and consult a pulmonologist for a comprehensive evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions such as infections or lung disease.
