warning

"MRI sequences can be grouped in a number of ways. Probably most accurately they are grouped according to the type of sequence (e.g. spin echo, or inversion recovery etc..) however for non radiologists another way of grouping sequences is by general image weighting (e.g. T1 or T2) and additional features (e.g. fat suppressed or gadolinium enhanced). This simplified approach is described in a separate article: MRI sequences (basic)."

Line 24:131 · An e.g. list gives selected examples, so it should not end with 'and' or 'or': 'e.g. spin echo, or'.
