ANSWER

The radiograph shows a large, hyperdense mass within the left hilum. A second hyperdense mass is seen within the left upper lobe. Both are concerning for neoplastic processes and warrant further evaluation with contrast-enhanced CT.

Although thorough work-up and biopsy is needed, the presumptive diagnosis is a primary lung mass with likely metastasis to the brain.
