unchanged Explanation: Hi Joseph. Here "conservado" means unchanged. There are several possibilities for this translation like "the thickening did not increase" or "remains the same" and others expressing that it didn't got worse. The report is giving the idea that this thickening was previously found and now they are comparing the measurements. |

normal thickening Explanation: I have found the following two papers, the second being referred to by the first: "Saab et al mostraron que segmentos clasificados como normales o con mismatch tenían con más frecuencia la forma de un engrosamiento conservado" www.revespcardiol.org/cgi-bin/wdbcgi.exe/cardio/mrevista_ca... Going to the abstract of Saab et al, we find: "Segments classified as normal or mismatch had a higher frequency of normal wall thickening (65% and 52%) than wall motion (31% and 17%)." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12794629?dopt=Abstract Reference: http://www.revespcardiol.org/cgi-bin/wdbcgi.exe/cardio/mrevi... Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12794629?dopt=Abstract |
