Lint: radiation-induced-glioma

Adjectival Hyphens
error

"Studies have shown that the estimated cumulative risk for malignant brain tumours is 0.5-2.7% at 15 years post-radiation therapy. 75% of all radiation-induced gliomas are glioblastomas and 25% are lower grade astrocytomas 3."

Line 4:110 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'post-radiation'.

suggestion

"There are no specific imaging features of the tumours themselves that differ radiation-induced from the sporadic gliomas. Please refer to the dedicated articles in the different types of gliomas for further details."
