Can a chest MRI detect lung cancer? I had a contrast chest CT scan, and the reports came back normal, but after a month, I developed a cough and sputum that lasted for two weeks. The coughing stopped, but sometimes I still get gray-colored sputum and feel pain around my lower ribs and shoulder blade. Is this a sign of lung cancer? I looked it up online, and now I'm concerned. Can an MRI better detect if something's wrong? I've attached my CT scan reports.

no they are not symptoms of lung cancer specifically
