Talk to Pulmonologist / Lung on Is This X-Ray Okay?

person-avatar

Asking for Self, Male, 31 years old, Karachi

Hi.

I had a routine checkup that included a chest x-ray. please find the report below.

I have no current symptoms. this was just a routine check-up.

Q1) Is this x-ray and report okay? is there anything to worry about?

Q2) One thing to note is that the radiologist had me take multiple deep breaths and retook the x-ray 3-4 times. Is that safe and normal? What are bronchovascular markings?

Thank You.

1.Yes this x-ray as well as report are fine,and there is nothing to worry about
2.its normal for an x-ray technician to ask for deep breath multiple times in order to meet certain criteria for a good quality chest xray.
Bronchovascular markings are representative of airways and blood vessels.

Can the airways be accentuated and become prominent due to multiple deep breaths? since the airways will be saturated with air and blood?

What do the markings signify? anything dangerous or important? the technician asked me to take multiple deep breaths with each x-ray attempt. is that why they are prominent since they are saturated? I don't notice anything physical with my clavicle.
