Cranial CT scan
From a cranial CT report issued in Spain (Malaga):
"Asimetría del tamaño ventricular con mayor tamaño del derecho, sin valor."
Does this mean the asymmetry is negligible?
"Asimetría del tamaño ventricular con mayor tamaño del derecho, sin valor."
Does this mean the asymmetry is negligible?

Discussion
Sparked by telefpro's idea, I found that abnormalities and differences are frequently described as "inconsequential" in medical reports, and this seemed to me to be the best fit here.
"Unremarkable" is certainly widely used, but I take it to mean that everything is normal (or not requiring comment), whereas in my context there is an (inconsequential) deviation from the norm.
