Summary

This observational study looks at how cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) — a common age-related brain condition — affects walking and balance. Researchers will use brain scans (MRI and EEG) to compare brain activity in 40 older adults with SVD and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find brain patterns linked to walking problems, which could lead to better fall prevention and rehabilitation in the future.
