Uterus is normal size with a small calcified fibroid on the anterior wall. What does that mean? Ovarian cyst measuring 3.7 cm with no evidence of free fluid - how big is that? What is free fluid? Evidence of umcomplicated diverticular disease colon mostly at the sigmoid level. Lower lung fields show minimal scars. Trace pericardial effusion.

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

Firoids are non cancerous growths of the uterus. They are formed within the wall of the uterus itself or attach to it.
They vary in size.

Your ultrasound indicates that the fibroid found was small and calcified. Calcified means that it has in deposits of calcium.

A cyst greater than 2.5 in is generally considered large. Your cyst is smaller than this.
Some cysts resolve on their own.

Free fluid is fluid that should not be present. The absence of free fluid is good.

Diverticular disease refers to out pockets in the intestinal wall. It is common as people as they age.
It is treated mainly with a high fiber diet.

I hope this helps
