"On somatostatin receptor PET-CT (e.g. 68Ga-DOTATOC, 68Ga-DOTATATE, or 68Ga-DOTANOC), optic nerve sheath meningiomas often have high uptake, due to high somatostatin receptor 2A (SSTR2A) expression 14."

Line 87:54 · Write the isotope as symbol-mass, e.g. F-18, not '68Ga'.

"Complications"

Line 110:1 · "Complications" is under the wrong parent heading (found under "Treatment and prognosis").
Semicolons
suggestion

"Optic nerve sheath meningiomas account for approximately 1-2% of all meningiomas 11, and a third of all optic nerve neoplasms; optic nerve gliomas are the most common entity. Unlike optic nerve gliomas which occur primarily in children, optic nerve sheath meningiomas are usually seen in adults (mean age at presentation 40 years) 1,5, however up to 25% are present in children, in which case they tend to be more aggressive 5. Similar to meningiomas elsewhere there is a female predilection 1,11."

Line 4:147 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"stereotactic fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) or intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) are preferred to conventional radiotherapy 7,11; proton beam radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery may other options 8,11"

Line 96:155 · Use semicolons judiciously.
Oxford Comma
suggestion

"rarely indicated, often reserved for cases with severely impaired vision, with or without severe proptosis, or if there is imaging evidence of posterior growth threatening the contralateral optic nerve 11"

Line 104:74 · Use the Oxford comma in 'vision, with or without'.
