Summary
This study tested whether a special ultrasound technique (contrast-enhanced ultrasound) can measure blood flow in the spinal cord during emergency surgery after a traumatic injury. 27 adults with recent spinal cord injury took part. The goal was to see if this imaging method is feasible and could help doctors decide on treatments to improve blood flow and potentially reduce long-term damage.
