What Does My Chest X-ray Test Report Indicate?
i JUST GOT OVER A BOUT WITH THE FLU/BRONCHITIS AND GOT A CHEST XRAY . THE RESULTS WERE: There are mild pleural-parenchymal changes in the apices. Otherwise the lungs and pleural spaces are clear.. i HAVE HAD PNEUMONIA IN THE RECENT PAST. IS THIS A CONCERN??

You will have to be examined by auscultation (stethescope) of chest for signs in chest by a doctor. If any abnormal sound in the shown area of x ray would have to be further tested for .In bronchitis there are some prominences seen on x ray in hilar region.pneumonitis also leaves some patch depending on area of consolidation involved. If you have no more symptoms , leave it to your chest physician who can decide clinically after physical check up
