Abstract
Static and dynamic posturography was used to study patients who had ex perienced a prevalent laterally directed whiplash in a car accident, R esults of both static and dynamic examinations were recorded. Findings showed that the whiplash injury had provoked shifting of the presser center of the body toward a side that was at least indicative of the k ind of cervical twist experienced, even when not corresponding to the prevalent direction of the trauma incurred.
