What are infilitrates seen in a right apex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infiltrate rt apex: Isolated filtrate in any part of lung is a shadow seen on xrays which normally is not there.Most of the infiltrates are due to infectious process like pnumonia, tuberculosis or other infections.Some times you need more images and cat scan to define the shadow if it does not clear with standard therapy.
