Hi,
Based on given report of your chest X-ray there are suspicious densities in the upper parts of your lungs. Since in the routine chest X-ray examination with PA view, the upper parts of the lungs are not seen clearly due to overlapping ribs, clavicle and lung shadows. Hence your doctor has recommended apicolorodotic view which will show the suspicious densities in both upper lobes of the lungs clearly so as to diagnose your condition properly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
