**5.2 Sensory organization test (SOT)**

The Sensory organization test (SOT) is used to evaluate postural instability. It is a clinical tool used to that allows to manipulate the sensory systems that contribute to balance [21]. The SOT is completed via Computerized Dynamic Posturography (CDP), which provides objective measures of balance through implementation of software and protocols in combination with force plates (**Figure 2**). Through six unique conditions, the SOT examines sensory reweighting by challenging the somatosensory, visual, and vestibular systems. One of the benefits of the SOT identified in the literature is the assessment's potential to provide information about the specific sensory system affected by the injury that may assist in directing treatment for patients with a concussion (**Figure 3**). Studies suggested that the use of additional evaluation tools could increase the sensitivity of the SOT and improve the identification of balance issues after a concussion [22].
