-\subsection{Delay Stages}
+MR-CMDS is subject to a number of possible artifacts, many of them stemming from the imperfect
+nature of the frequency-tunable light sources we currently have.  %
+It is self-evidently desirable to correct these artifacts, when possible.  %
+Indeed many of these artifacts, such as OPA power, phase mismatch and absorption effects have
+regularly been corrected for.  % TODO: link to examples in applications section
+These corrections are applied after measurement, typically including information from other sources
+(such as absorption spectra, in the case of absorption effect corrections).
 
-% TODO: discuss _all 3_ delay configurations.... implications for sign conventions etc
+A more interesting class of corrections are ``active'' corrections---that is, corrections that must
+be actively applied during acquisition and cannot be applied in post processing.  %
+These corrections are more insidious, and they are often neglected because the hardware and/or
+software does not allow for them.  %
 
-\section{Signal Acquisition}
+In this chapter I explore some of these active correction strategies that are useful in the context
+of MR-CMDS.  %
+Some of these strategies have already been implemented, others are partially implemented, and
+others are still just ideas.  %
+I hope to show that active correction is a particularly useful strategy in MR-CMDS.  %
