What Does The Following CT Scan Report Indicate?
Then had her back after her bronchitis cleared up to double check what they saw.
And now are going to take a CT scan and look at something just about 3 ribs (?) down from her collarbone on the left side. ANy idea what they could be looking at or for?
It is difficult to tell what it could be in the absence of any history etc.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX,
Thanks for posting your query on HCM.
It is absolutely impossible to make a guess in the absence of any history, clinical examination and seeing at least a chest x-ray. It could be because of one of many causes that may affect the left zone as there are many structures there, ofcourse commonest being lungs. It would be inappropriate to make even a wild guess and have you worried unnecessarily.
Do let me know if she has recurrent chest infection, any sputum and it's nature, any blood in sputum , any weight loss, fever etc. Is there any history of smoking? Do upload the chest x-ray film if you have it.
With these inputs I may be able to help you.
Take care.
