Not bad: The ultrasound findings are not bad. In fact, ultrasound is user dependent meaning that the findings you describe might not even be seen by others. If you have persistent symptoms, ask your doctor about ordering a ct.

Ultrasound report: There will always be variability in looking at abdominal ultrasounds from one person to another. The detail you provided was just language used to describe subtle differences in what was being seen in your case compared to someone else's. There was nothing in that description that was alarming.
