Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Mediastium is the area lies between lungs.
Mediastium carries heart, aorta, vena cava, lymphnodes etc.
So abnormality of any of these structures can appear as shadow between lungs.
So get done CT thorax.
CT thorax is must to identify mediastinal pathology.
So discuss about CT thorax with her doctor.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your sister. Thanks.
