error

"Post-processing software can also introduce difference in results, with data showing that the same DSC data analysed with different software packages can lead to different perfusion values4."

Line 9:4 · 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: 'Post-processing'.

Strong
warning

"This technique is sometimes referred to, perhaps more accurately, as dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced MR perfusion, still abbreviated to DSC. This should not be confused with dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MR perfusion, which relies on T1 shortening due to gadolinium-based contrast."

Line 2:73 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong>dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced MR perfusion</strong>'

Oxford Comma
suggestion

"Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MR perfusion is one of the most frequently used techniques for MRI perfusion, and relies on the susceptibility induced signal loss on T2*-weighted sequences which results from a bolus of gadolinium-based contrast passing through a capillary bed. The most commonly calculated parameters are rCBV, rCBF, MTT and Tmax 5."

Line 1:372 · Use the Oxford comma in 'rCBF, MTT and Tmax'.
