Words We Never Use
error

"Cardiac cine: TE ~1-3 ms to minimise motion artefacts"

Line 31:52 · Radiopaedia always uses 'artifacts' rather than 'artefacts'.
List Caps
warning

"Cardiac cine: TE ~1-3 ms to minimise motion artefacts"

Line 31:8 · In general, we don't start a list item with a capital letter. Exceptions are proper nouns.
Colons
warning

"Cardiac cine: TE ~1-3 ms to minimise motion artefacts"

Line 31:20 · The first word after a colon should almost always be lowercase. In this case, it's not: ': TE ~1-3'.

"Musculoskeletal T2: TE ~60-100 ms for cartilage evaluation"

Line 32:26 · The first word after a colon should almost always be lowercase. In this case, it's not: ': TE ~60-100'.

"UTE sequences: TE"

Line 33:21 · The first word after a colon should almost always be lowercase. In this case, it's not: ': TE <0.1'.
Acronyms
warning

"Short TE (10-30 ms): Minimises T2 effects, emphasising T1 contrast when combined with short TR. Fat appears bright, water appears dark."

Line 36:107 · 'TR' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"Intermediate TE (15-20 ms): Combined with long TR, minimises T1 and T2 effects, producing proton density weighting 5."

Line 38:51 · 'TR' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"signal-to-noise ratio: longer TE reduces SNR due to T2 decay"

Line 41:56 · 'SNR' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.
Strong
warning

"motion sensitivity: longer TE increases sensitivity to patient movement"

Line 42:8 · Generally, don't use bold in text: 'motion sensitivity:<strong> </strong>longer TE increases sensitivity to patient movement'

"Chemical shift artifacts: fat-water misregistration varies with TE, readout bandwidth, and field strength."

Line 47:36 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong> </strong>fat-water misregistration varies with TE, readout bandwidth, and field strength'
