Acronyms in headings

Last Updated : Feb 27, 2024 |

If the first use of an acronym occurs in a heading, do not define it in the heading. When possible, rewrite the heading to avoid the use of the acronym. Otherwise, use only the acronym in the heading. Spell out the acronym in the first sentence below the heading.
