Might it be possible that a a chest x-ray tell if you smoke weed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Strictly speaking, a chest x-ray does not show evidence of marijuana use. However, there are certain findings such as emphysematous changes which could be consistent with chronic lung changes due to smoking in general. I hope this helps.
