Internal echoes: It means that the fluid is not homogenous. When the ultrasound beam passes thru fluid(or anything), a part of it bounces back or 'echoes' if it encounters something else. It is works exactly like sonar works over a body of water. So internal echoes in cyst fluid could be due to debris or blood mixed in with the fluid, or other things.
