What does unremarkable mean in ultrasound?

Remarkable ultrasound are those with clear images of the anatomy, including the location of the placenta, fetal pole, motion, heart and external appearance. Transient or normal anatomical variations may appear unusual and may need further evaluation. However, if the ultrasound shows a normal anatomy, it is unlikely to be anything to cause concern.

When an ultrasound exam shows an area that appears normal, it means that the structure appears as it should. In some cases, the image may appear too dark, which is called an acoustic shadow. An acoustic shadow is just that — it’s an area that appears darker than the surrounding tissue because of the way the sound waves are reflected.
