Medical - Medical (general)
Spanish term or phrase: impresiona conservada
In the write-up of a brain scan is the following:

"[illegible]ensidad del hemisferio cerebral derecho, impresiona conservada."

I can't quite figure out what this means, other than "imprints preserved", but that doesn't make much sense.

appears to be normal/no abnormalities/intact
Explanation:
I translate medical reports almost daily. This is very common language in medical reports in Spanish.

"Impresiona" -> appears to be
"preservada/conservada" -> normal/intact/no abnormalities (no abnormalities is often said "sin alteraciones" as well)

appears preserved/intact


Explanation:
Presumably, "impresiona" means "da la impresión" or "con aspecto," although I can't say I have ever seen this usage before.

neutral  philgoddard: You should agree with Robert, not repost his answer.

  -> "preserved" and "conserved" are words you often see in the Spanish and Portuguese versions of medical reports. They are seldom seen in their English counterparts, though. I agree with his suggestion for "intact", but not "preserved".
agree  Joseph Tein: I have "normal" in my own glossary, as the main way to express this idea (conservada); clearly no one else has suggested this answer.
