Hi
I have gone through your Xray findings.there is prominant bronchovadcular markings,usually seen in chronic bronchitis.
Sub segmental atelectatis at lung bases means positional/ collapse due to pressure is seen in dependent positions.rest of the findings are normal.nothing to worry.they suggested CT chest for further evaluation.
Thank you
Best regards
