Summary

This study looked at 36 children with neuromuscular scoliosis (a spine curve caused by muscle or nerve problems) who had a special surgery that doesn't fuse the bones. Researchers used ultrasound to measure how stiff the spine's discs and muscles became over time. The goal was to understand how the spine changes after this surgery, not to test a new treatment.
