Vague Pleural Density???
What the heck is a "vague pleural density.". My scans came back clear today except for a noted "6mm vague pleural density..no effusion" in my left lung that was not there previously. I have been NED since April but had 2 small lung mets that were in my right lung. My Oncologist told me immediately that it was absolutely nothing to worry about, that he had looked at the scans and it was nothing. I always look at the reports and he knew I was going to question what this was. Of course I was so glad he said my scans were clean that I didn't question him further about exactly what it was. The only thing I could find on "google" about it had to do with asbestos??? I have just finished 33 radiations that were supposedly to my right breast, I am wondering if this could be something left over from radiation. I read sometimes radiation does hit the lungs. Are any of you familiar with this term?...sherryg683
