Hi Amiee,
The lung tissues usually appear clear in an x-ray.
Suspicious densites should not be there. It can indicate scarring, fluids, or an infection.
The haziness also should not be there for the same reasons.
Your heart appears normal (cardiac silhouette).
The space between your diaphragm and the ribs (costphrenic sulci) is normal. Everything else appears normal.
You'll need further testing. A sputum analysis can help determine what is causing the haziness/densities.
Good luck.
