The x-tray result of my 67 years old mother is minimal reticulohazy densities are seen in both lower lungs and the impression is consider bibasal pneumonia. may i know what the meaning of the result.. and what treatment? please?

It means there are abnormalities in the lower lungs that could represent pneumonia, depending on her clinical symptoms. A chest x-ray needs to be interpreted based on the clinical information so the best doctor to interpret these findings is the doctor who ordered the x-ray since that doctor knows what was being looked for, Treatment depends on diagnosis-she needs to see her doctor. Good luck!
