A journal I was editing for specified that abbreviations listed in the AMA Manual of Style were acceptable, so I figured I'd better buy me a copy. It has lots of useful advice on many technical subjects related to health and medicine, and I am wondering why I didn't buy it before. It also offers helpful tips on US style English, and appears to be well written, with helpful examples and interesting quotations.
