How scared should i be when the doctors office calls back and says they see an asymmetrical density on my xray?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
X-RAY CONCERN: X-ray is one of many ways to look at internal structures. X-rays are trying to look at three-dimensional structures with a handful of one-dimensional pictures. Sometimes this distorts what the radiologist sees. Try not to worry as this is the first of many different tests to look at things that appear to be abnormal. Most importantly, make an attempt to connect with your doctor ASAP.
