Oxford Comma
suggestion

"The goal with the shunt projections is, overlap and clear visualisation of the shunt, these are not traditionally centred projections."

Line 5:40 · Use the Oxford comma in 'is, overlap and clear'.
Semicolons
suggestion

"although many patients who present with a suspected shunt failure will receive a head CT, it is not recommended to abstain from performing the skull portion of the series; patients may have negative CT findings but positive x-ray findings 2"

Line 30:178 · Use semicolons judiciously.
