my chest xray findings stated: suspicious upper left lung infiltrates, suggest spot view. heart is within normal size. visualized osseous structures are intact. what does suspicious upper left lung infiltrates means?
Infiltrates can indicate many conditions from scars to infection to cancer. You should follow up with your doctor to determine if they are serious and whether they require additional testing such as a CT scan or bronchoscopy.
