Bilateral lungs

Example: IMPRESSION: Stable multiple pulmonary nodules in the bilateral lungs.


-You could not say “lung bilaterally” or “lungs unilaterally”. If there are lungs (plural form), they are bilateral.

– I suspect the author’s intent was to say the nodules (not the lungs) are bilateral

-where else can pulmonary nodules be other than in the lungs? Don’t need to say “pulmonary”

potential rewrite: Multiple stable lung nodules bilaterally.
