Hi @penn, reading a CT scan can be scary if you're reading it before discussing with your doctor.

Ground glass opacity (GGO) refers to the hazy gray areas that can show up in CT scans of the lungs. Ground glass indicates the need for more questions and possibly more testing. "GGO can be due to many conditions. Sometimes, the cause is benign. Other times, it may be the temporary result of a short-term illness. However, it can also indicate a more serious or long-term condition." https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ground-glass-opacity#definition

Do you know why your doctor ordered a CT scan of your lungs? When do you meet with your doctor to discuss?
