Spatio-temporal and kinematic gait analysis in patients with Frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer’s disease through 3D motion capture

Highlights • Close functional relationship between gait and cognitive functions. • Three dimensional motion analysis to study the kinematics of gait. • Dual task paradigm to evaluate the ability to perform simultaneously different tasks. • Gait pattern in FTD patients is more impaired than in AD pat...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Close functional relationship between gait and cognitive functions. • Three dimensional motion analysis to study the kinematics of gait. • Dual task paradigm to evaluate the ability to perform simultaneously different tasks. • Gait pattern in FTD patients is more impaired than in AD patients. • Articular excursion evaluation is helpful in revealing gait impairment.
