Can accentuated bv marking in both lung fields mean lung cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, not likely: Lung Cancer should be suspect only if there is a svisible mass(growth) seen on X-rays. Increased BV markings usually means either congestion in the lungs or often they do not mean much, unless patient is short of breath or has known lung or heart disease.
