Mildly Dilated IVC

Hey

I recently had a echocardiogram and my results all came back normal except for ‘ mildly dilated IVC with normal collapse.

The doctor didn’t really say anything when I asked what it meant, kind of like he didn’t know himself.

Just wondering if anyone has this or knows what it is, it means or what causes it and if it’s bad ?

Thank you
