Abstract

Virtual reality is an integrated technology which simulates the real world via the computer, with characteristics of immersion, interaction and imagination. It is widely used in neurological rehabilitation. Freezing of gait (FOG) is a destructive symptom which appears in late stage of Parkinson's disease, which can be divided into subtypes of moving forward with very small steps, leg trembling in place and total akinesia, and often results in fall and injury of the patients. Virtual reality can simulate the environment of FOG to provide a new idea for the assessment. Virtual reality combined with treadmill training can provide challenging functional training in a complex environment to improve the gait. How it works is remained unclear.
