Norwegian term

Hei! This word occurs in a medical report for a patient who has had a physical examination. I can't find an equivalent UK-English term, though; can anyone help?

Thanks and regards,

liver dullness

From the reference below: Normally, one expects to hear dull sound on percussion of the right anterior chest over the liver, and tympanic sound on percussion of left anterior chest over the gastric air bubble and the splenic flexure of the colon (Figure 1).
