A member asked:
What do you suggest if my chest xray result is - suspicious apical densities.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It sounds like: you will probably need a chest CT to further evaluate this. The radiologist may be concerned that there might be a mass or nodule in the upper part of the lung.
