[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. I have gone through the CT report you have mentioned. Her CT report is more suggestive of infection and inflammation. But nodules and lymph nodes in old age (84 years) should also evaluate for cancer. So for her follow-up CT scan of thorax after 6 months is required to see the size of nodules and lymph nodes. If size is stable order regressing, no need to worry about cancer. But if size is increasing then she should definitely investigate for lung cancer. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
