[|Human|] I undergone chest pa xray and its shows suspicious infiltrate on both upper lobes. They recommend a apicolordotic xray and it shows no significant findings. I have no acute or active infiltrates. I just wonder why the first xray shows that I have one. What does it implies?
[|AI|]  HelloYour chest X-ray findings may suggest suspicious infiltrate in both upper lobes. It may be due to infective etiology. You are rightly advised for apicolordotic chest X-ray. It is a special view to visualize apical area because apical area is overlapped by bony ribs and clavicle. Normal chest X-ray(PA view) may miss the findings. Apicolordotic view overcome this problem and its helps in better evaluation of apical areas. Empirically you may be prescribed antibiotics. You may need to follow up chest X-ray. If findings and symptoms doesn't improve then tuberculosis etc. should be excluded. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
