welcome to Health care magic.
Linear density on the right upper lung - the most possible cause could be atelectasis. After a collapsed lung - infective / inflammation. But there is nothing much you should worry, malignant ( cancerous lesions) are generally do not have this kind of findings.
Let lordotic view done, even for confirmation a CT scan can be done in case of further suspicion. Good luck.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
