Bibasilar Subsegmental Atelectasis
Bibasilar means its seen in the bottom (or bases) of both of your lungs. An opacity is something that's somewhat opaque and linear describes the shape.
Subsegmental atelectasis means you may have segments of your lung bases that are closed, parenchymal scarring means it may be scar tissue from a prior condition.
Basically, they see something funky in the bases of your lungs that is either scar tissue or small areas of your lungs are closing up.
