THE APPLICATION OF VISUAL-BASED ACUPOINT POSITIONING TECHNOLOGY IN ACUPOINT ROBOTS

Eurasia Journal of Science and Technology
Acupuncture efficacy depends on the precision of acupoint localization. Based on prior research, this paper proposes a technical framework for automatic facial acupoint positioning and robotic acupuncture: facial information is captured using RGB-D vision, and an improved YOLOv8 model detects 27 index acupoints across 15 categories, enabling precise ...

Positional Relationship Between the Orbicularis Oculi and Zygomaticus Complex Muscles by Ultrasonography: New Anatomical Insights for Crow's Feet Injection

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 662-671, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The orbicularis oculi muscle (OOc) is strongly associated with facial aging as its contraction causes the formation of crow's feet. Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection is a representative treatment targeting muscle. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the anatomical relationship between the OOc and the zygomaticus complex muscles, and ...

CPTCs Drive Somatic‐Visceral Communication via the Wnt Axis in Somatic Mechanotherapy: A Single‐Cell Deep Learning Study

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 15, 15 August 2026.
Using an interpretable deep learning framework (CARSS) applied to multi‐tissue single‐cell RNA sequencing, we identify CD34⁺PDGFRα⁺ telocytes (CPTCs) as the primary mechanosensors bridging somatic acupuncture stimulation and visceral repair. Mechanical force at acupoints activates an AP‐1/Hsp70 immediate‐early gene program in fascial CPTCs, triggering ...

Shockwave Therapy or Acupoint Stimulation Combined With Physiotherapy for Spasticity and Motor Function in Post‐Stroke Recovery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Stroke frequently causes spasticity and motor impairment, reducing independence. Non‐invasive treatments like radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and acupoint‐based transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (Acu‐TENS) show potential, but direct comparisons with physiotherapy are limited.
