Adjectival Hyphens
error

"While calcification is not as prominent on MRI as it is on CT, at least one study has utilised MRI pre-operatively to assess the degree of adherence between the calcification and underlying structures by determining if there was any CSF-intensity signal between the margins of the calcific capsule and underlying brain on T2-weighted images 7. Such determination is not possible using CT 7."

Line 24:103 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-operatively'.

warning

"The interval period between acute bleed and calcification varies from 6 months to many years, and most often occurs when the haematoma is due to head trauma 1-3. Importantly, only the periphery of the haematoma uniformly calcifies, the contents are gelatinous or clay-like in composition and consistency 2. In some cases, the periphery of the haematoma eventually ossifies, known as an ossified chronic subdural haematoma 2."
