Slovak term or phrase: bez prítomnosti hladiny
Doing something on an MRI scan and I cannot work out what they mean by "hladiny" in the following: Objemnejšia cystická lézia uložená v dorzálnej časti maxillárnej dutiny vľavo bez prítomnosti zhrubnutia ostatnej časti sliznice ľavej maxillárnej dutiny a ***bez prítomnosti hladiny***.
Thank you for any help.

no air-fluid level
Explanation:
Možná toto?

Most air-fluid levels are visualized in the paranasal sinuses (most frequently in the maxillary sinus ) and result from acute bacterial sinusitis . An air-fluid level is used to diagnose radiographically an acute bacterial sinusitis (Fig. 1), but this sign is only present in half of cases; conversely, a paranasal air-fluid level is also seen in a number of other conditions (Table 1). A sinusal polyp (see sinonasal cavities, polyposis ) or retention cyst may appear flat and mimic an air-fluid level (Fig. 2) (see also mucous retention cyst ).
Air-fluid levels may also be seen in the middle ear and mastoid cells, due to serous otitis media , cerebrospinal fluid leak or post-traumatic bleeding (see haemotympanon ).
Air-fluid level, Table 1. Causes of air-fluid level in paranasal sinuses.
