A member asked:
Minimal sub pleural interstitial changes suggested at the lower and outer left lung base" can someone explain this, in a very simple way, please?

Haziness: There is haziness seen on the scan Normal lung should appear black with white markings that signify the airways and vessels. They are seeing increased white markings (haziness) which is nonspecific and could be related to infection, inflammation, etc. might be a good idea to repeat the scan after you've been treated to see if there is resolution of the haziness
