Virtual Reality—A Supplement to Posturography or a Novel Balance Assessment Tool?
Virtual reality (VR) is a well-established technology in medicine. Head-mounted displays (HMDs) have made VR more accessible in many branches of medical research. However, its application in balance evaluation has been vague, and comprehensive literature

Static posturography as a novel measure of the effects of aging on postural control in dogs
Aging is associated with impairment in postural control in humans. While dogs are a powerful model for the study of aging, the associations between age and postural control in this species have not yet been elucidated.

The Effect of Ankle-Foot Orthoses and Their Characteristics on Balance, and Postural Control in Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cerebral palsy (CP) frequently compromises postural control and balance in children. Ankle–foot orthoses (AFOs) are routinely prescribed to improve stability, yet the influence of specific design parameters—stiffness, alignment, and individualized tuning—on balance outcomes remains inadequately characterized.

The applications of posturography in selected neurological disorders
Posturography is one of the objective methods of evaluating human balance. Human balance is the ability to maintain a vertical center of mass (COM) in the support area (base of support – BOS).
