Hello,
The X-ray showing minimal reticulo densities indicates underlying healing phase of pulmonary tuberculosis. The lung parenchyma often takes period of months to years to become back stage to normal after treatment of tuberculosis. However, if the destruction lung parenchyma was active , there are all high chances of reactivation, infectivity and others.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
