What is the question: Don't see a question in there! However, congratulations on quitting, and please keep trying hard to STAY QUIT. You actually can't see bronchitis on an Xray, but smokers show an increase in markings that doctors interpret as being consistent with bronchitis - inflammation of the bronchi associated with cough and sputum production. It should improve but takes time and cough increases for a while.
