Good news that the “something” is not tumor or cancerous, but not possible to know what this may be without further information.  Lung scans are usually performed when a blood clot to the lung is suspected.  You should ask for a copy of the official report.  You should then call your doctor for his/her interpretation.

Hope this is nothing serious.

Good luck.
