Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Prominent broncho vascular markings in both lungs fields may be due to infection like bronchitis,age related changes etc.Your husband need clinical correlation.
There is nothing to be worried.It is a benign finding.
If it is due to infection then it will reverse with control of infection.
Findings are not serious at all.
Hope I have answered your question.
Take Care
