Colons
warning

"NB: This article is intended to outline some general principles of protocol design. The specifics will vary depending on MRI hardware and software, radiologist's and referrer's preference, institutional protocols, patient factors (e.g. allergy), and time constraints."

Line 2:6 · The first word after a colon should almost always be lowercase. In this case, it's not: ': This article'.
Acronyms
warning

"MR fluoroscopy using a thick-slab 50-mm coronal HASTE sequence with fat saturation, starting at the beginning of the infusion and repeated every 8 seconds during normal breathing"

Line 47:66 · 'HASTE' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"subsequently, every 5 minutes, depending on the degree of distention observed from the HASTE images, coronal and axial true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) sequences with fat saturation are performed with a slice thickness of 5 mm to study morphologic changes"

Line 48:95 · 'HASTE' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"with maximal distention, multislice HASTE images with fat saturation and unenhanced and enhanced (0.1 mmol/kg gadolinium) T1 coronal and axial fast low-angle shot (FLASH) 2D images with fat saturation are obtained 60 seconds after contrast injection"

Line 49:44 · 'HASTE' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

Oxford Comma
suggestion

"subsequently, every 5 minutes, depending on the degree of distention observed from the HASTE images, coronal and axial true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) sequences with fat saturation are performed with a slice thickness of 5 mm to study morphologic changes"

Line 48:101 · Use the Oxford comma in 'images, coronal and axial'.
MRI Vendor Sequences
suggestion

"subsequently, every 5 minutes, depending on the degree of distention observed from the HASTE images, coronal and axial true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) sequences with fat saturation are performed with a slice thickness of 5 mm to study morphologic changes"

Line 48:178 · 'FISP' is an MRI-manufacturer-specific sequence, try to avoid using these.
