Is Surgery Advised For Scoliosis With Back Pain?

Doctor,My wife is diagnosed as a case of Scoliosis after our doctor advised Digital X-Ray. She is 51 years, 5'4", 70 kgs. She has been complaining of her back pain for the past several years. However, last 2 weeks she had chronic back pain. She had rheumatism in her leg joints when she was a child. In a follow up consultation today, the doctor advised her MRI. Will she be required to undergo surgery?
