"Chronic arterial compression may result in stenosis, post-stenotic dilatation, aneurysm formation, thrombosis and distal embolisation 1,5."

Line 10:92 · Use the Oxford comma in 'formation, thrombosis and distal'.

"CTA can also demonstrate vascular complications, including stenosis, post-stenotic dilatation, aneurysm and thrombosis 5."

Line 23:87 · Use the Oxford comma in 'dilatation, aneurysm and thrombosis'.

"MRA can demonstrate arterial stenosis, occlusion, thrombosis and aneurysmal change 5,6."
