Chronic changes: is a very non specific description. Usually it means lung scarring or other findings that are probably the result of a remote infection or injury, but are not likely to be causing any acute symptoms. No active disease means no abnormality that looks acute.

Good thing: Chronic changes on chest xray exam usually refer to scars in lungs or calcifications related to old infection. No active disease is phrase that active infection or even tumor is not present in the chest.
