This term is one that sounds very much like a doctor's diagnosis.
Mild means that the condition is either very early in development or displays only slight or occasional findings in comparison to a condition that might be called moderate or severe.
Bilateral means that something is found on or occurs on both sides or opposite sides of something; it means on two sides. Very often in medicine this term is used to mean that something is on both the left and right side of the area being described.
Facets are small spinal joints found on the back or rear portion of the spine that support and guide movement of the spine to normal limits.
Arthosis means an early or slight development that is similar to Arthritis, but it has not yet advanced too far to actually be Arthritis but it will someday if it continues; it means a very early or pre-arthritis condition.
Taken together the term means that the doctor thinks a person has a mild early condition in which mild arthritis is starting in the facet joints on both sides of the spine at an undetermined part of the spine.
