NCT ID NCT07118228

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at children with spastic cerebral palsy to see if ultrasound images of their muscles can predict how well they can move. Researchers will measure muscle thickness, stiffness, and blood flow, and compare these to standard tests of motor function. The goal is to find better ways to plan rehabilitation for each child.
