Are Roman numbers still used for leads on EKGs per the BOS or did that all change to Arabic too?

The BOS second edition -- For standard bipolar leads, use roman numerals (lead I, II, III). For the precordial leads use arabic (V1, V2, etc.)

They go through the list of leads and how they should be written in their cardiology section.

Thank you! I wasn't sure if that was one that changed or not.
