A member asked:
Can you please describe mild pleural-based scarring at the anterolateral right middle lobe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anatomic description: This indicates the anatomic location of scarring along the inner wall of the chest cavity. In and of itself it is diagnostic. It's is simply the end result of an injury. It is your clinicians job to help you determine the cause, if possible, of the injury and the need for further evaluation (testing or biopsy or follow up) and need for treatment.
