Brief Answer:
Xray report is within normal limits.

Detailed Answer:
,Hi Gogh Saswata,
Thanks for the query.I understand your concern.
The Xray reports provided in the query show perfectly normal anatomy of the thorax &lungs with no obvious pathology .
Only point denoting variation in depth of right dome of diaphragm.. .being elevated..is not significant here as there is no other sign of pathology in lung field .Such variation in diaphragmatic elevation depends on age,weight &thorasic diamentions of person...
I hope that helps.
Any follow up query is welcome.
Thanks.
