What does linear density in right mid lung area and left upper lung field mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you are: talking about a chest xray finding, usually this means a lung scar(from prior infection or trauma) or a small region of atelectasis(collapse), often seen in asthma exacerbations and similar acute processes.
