Appropriate Image Selection With Virtual Reality in Vestibular Rehabilitation: Cross-sectional Study.

Although the use of a VR system for vestibular rehabilitation is relatively new, no extant studies have examined how the image type used in VR can affect the integration of visual system data. Therefore, this study is unique in terms of showing the effects of the stress created by the change in the type of the image used in VR. When VR technology is used for therapeutic vestibular rehabilitation for patients whose balance disorder is due to the vestibular system, stress-free videos should be used. However, the use of stressful videos in VR technology will be beneficial in the rehabilitation of those with balance disorders due to the somatosensory system.
