What Does X Ray Result Mean?
gud a.m I'm 31 years old, 54 kg. I got my x-ray result yesterday and the remarks said that "A lateral view is suggested for further evaluation of suspicious densities in the right paracardiac area".What does it mean?
I had an achalasia way back 2007 and undergone a dilation.

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
According to chest X-ray,there are suspicious lesions in right paracardiac region(adjacent to heart).It may be due to many reasons.
For confirmation,firstly you need lateral view of chest x-ray.It can exclude some of the possibilities.However,CT scan should be done if there is some doubt.
Get well soon.
