Hi,
The findings are showing mild thickening of the upper covering of the lungs. This is not a serious concern.
The other finding suggests calcium deposition adjacent to 2 vertebrae in the lower back.
This can cause pain in the lower back and stiffness but is not a serious concern.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vivek Chail, Radiologist
