Medical - Medical (general)
Dutch term or phrase: matglasverdichting
In a report about a chest/abdomen CT:
"Perifere matglasverdichtingen in beide longvelden meer uitgesproken in de basale longgebieden (beginnend interstitieel longlijden)".

Not sure about the 'frosted glass' bit, what is the correct medical word in English please?

TIA
