Gait Disturbances and Hips Bone Mineral Density

March 14, 2012 updated by: Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center
The objective of this study is to investigate the role of gait disturbance as a cause for difference in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) between both hips. Each subject will undergo the following tests: Functional Mobility Testing, Gait analysis, Motion Analysis, Assessments for Balance and Gait and Cognitive assessments.
