[|Human|] My Chest x-ray report shows the followings Broncho vascular markings of both ling fields are accentuated - suggest bronchitis Both lungs appears slightly hyperinflated Both Hilum are slightly congested.Both Domes of diaphragm appears slightly flattened.No consolidation / collapse of lung seen. Costrophrenic angles are clear. Cardio-thoracic ratio is normal Bony thorax is normal.What does all these mean?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Prominent bronchovascular markings and Him are commonly seen with bronchitis. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. This patient may need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). If this patient is smoker then smoking cessation should be done first. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to this patient. Thanks.
