Hi
The chest x-ray report which you have mentioned appears to be normal except for the prominent bronchovascular markings. This is seen in many conditions such as BRONCHITIS, COPD, etcetera. it all depends on what your symptoms are and why you went in for your Chest X-ray. if you are a smoker than you may have to quit smoking and if you have any symptoms then you need to be evaluated further
all in all it does not appear to be serious issue.
