An X-ray just shows a 2D flat image of dense and less dense tissue.
eg Bone, metal, lung gunge is Denser and shows up as white.
A CT scan is a 3D image ( Computerised Tomography) and shows more detail.
A CT scan will give alot more detail as to whats going on in the lungs and will pick up on things a chest xray can't
