    And I quote: "Numerals, or figures, stand out from the surrounding text and serve a functional purpose in medical reports, where they should be used almost exclusively as opposed to spelled-out numbers.

    Exceptions: Judgment and discretion are need when deciding but adjacent numbers require one to be spelled out to avoid confusion.

    Use a comma to separate adjacent unrelated numerals if neither can be readily expressed in words and the sentence cannot be readily reworded.

    Use numerals for fractions.

    Spell out numbers that begin a sentence.

    Zero is always spelled out when it stands alone.

    Spell out numbers used as pronouns.

    That should get you started!
