Summary

This study uses ultrasound to measure the thickness of ankle cartilage in people with spinal cord injury and compares it to healthy volunteers. The goal is to detect early signs of osteoarthritis, a common joint problem in this group. Researchers will also look at how factors like mobility and muscle stiffness relate to cartilage health. About 76 adults aged 18 to 60 with spinal cord injury will take part.
