    ..Although VR and TC can benefit people with vestibulopathy, the degree to which gait improvements may be related to neuromuscular adaptations of the lower extremities for the two different therapies are unknown...

    ..We conclude that GZS is most improved in those who receive VR, but that TC improves WBS and FFS without improving GZS, suggesting patients with VSP can rely on non-gaze related mechanisms to improve postural control...

    ..Hypothesis: the analytical model can predict AC and SB thickness within 1 voxel dimension at a 95 percent confidence level and exhibit defect detection sensitivity and specificity greater than 98 percent. ..
