Sound decisions: real-time ultrasound in the management of traumatic spinal cord injury
Integrating ultrasound into tSCI care could yield actionable biomarkers, enhance intraoperative and critical care decision-making, and accelerate the translation of novel therapies. Future priorities include standardizing imaging protocols, validating prognostic metrics, correlating imaging findings with long-term outcomes, and developing portable systems for continuous, patient-specific monitoring.
