This study investigates the use of US Elastography to understand changes in the stiffness of tethered spinal cords compared to normal spinal cords. US Elastography is a technique that uses ultrasound waves to measure the stiffness of tissues, which can help in assessing various medical conditions.
Participants in this study will undergo US Elastography procedures to measure the stiffness of their spinal cords. This process involves using ultrasound technology to capture images and data about the spinal cord's stiffness, providing valuable insights into its condition.
- Who can participate: The study is open to individuals aged 18 and older with a tethered spinal cord condition as well as those with normal spinal cords for comparison.
- Study details: Participants will undergo US Elastography to assess tissue stiffness, capturing images and data of the spinal cord to evaluate its condition.
