"fMRI is technically-challenging to perform as the techniques used to visualise cortical activity (most commonly BOLD imaging) rely on minute changes in a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environment."

Line 12:119 · 'BOLD' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"Block design uses repeated blocks of activity (paradigm) separated by blocks of inactivity or alternative activity. This is by far the most frequently used study design in clinical fMRI."

Line 27:4 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong>Block design</strong>'

"Event-related design involves individual events rather than blocks, and can be randomly distributed during the study."

Line 28:4 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong>Event-related design</strong>'

"The activity performed or stimulus received by the patient is termed a paradigm, and each is designed to elicit a specific cortical response. Numerous paradigms have been developed of various complexity. In the clinical setting four paradigms (with modifications according to the clinical situation) suffice for most indications."

Line 30:75 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong>paradigm</strong>'
