This example shows how to tabulate data for a bilateral organ, where both sides were examined and only 1 result was reported.
One side was unremarkable and the other side had a finding. "UNREMARKABLE" was not tabulated; only the finding was included. Per schedule, both sides of the kidney were examined, so MILAT is "BOTH". Because the finding is reported for 1 unspecified side (unilateral), this is the result location, consequently tabulated as a result modifier (see MIRESMOD example below).
This row shows the supplemental qualifier record for the modifiers associated with the findings in MI.
