Welcome to health care magic.
1.Thre are few densities, could not be assessed in PA view so lordotic view is asked.
2.In that view that location is well delineated.
3.The densities could be infective, mass, collection.
4.A CT chest will be confirmatory.
5.Rest all in your x-ray appears normal.
6.Possibilitis of tuberculosis are more as its most common location. good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.
