"Pelvic radiographs are a mainstay radiographic examination in trauma imaging. The standard radiographic exam is an AP pelvis, however more specialised projections can be requested to answer specific clinical questions. For a list of the specialised views see the pelvis series article."

Oxford Comma

suggestion

"The pelvis radiograph is comprised of the innominate hip bones or os coxae (ischium, pubis and ilium), the sacrum and the proximal femur. Much of the interpretation is down to regions, rings and lines alongside an understanding of traumatic fracture patterns of the pelvic ring."

Line 4:87 · Use the Oxford comma in 'ischium, pubis and ilium'.
