What does ground glass appearence in chest xrays mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends...: Ground glass opacities on chest x-rays may be due to inflammatory or infectious causes, and occasionally hemorrhage. You may have or previously had a process causing the ground glass appearance. If you are having any symptoms, consult your internist or pulmonologist.
