sub term - ✔✔-a word or phrase that describes a main term in the alphabetic index. it may show
etiology of the disease, describe a particular type or body site for the main term.
nonessential modifiers - ✔✔-are for main terms or subterms shown in parentheses on the same line,

the term that follows the word "see" in the index. the "see" reference means that the main term where
the coder first looked is not correct; another category must be used.
