Lint: x-ray-artifacts

Adjectival Hyphens
error

"X-ray artifacts can present in various ways, including abnormal shadows noted on a radiograph or degraded image quality, and have been produced by artificial means from hardware failure, operator error and software (post-processing) artifacts."

Line 1:237 · 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-processing)'.
