THERMOVISUAL EVALUATION OF ACUPUNCTURE POINTS
Acupuncture & Electro-Therapeutics Research, 2001The aim of our study is to evaluate the temperature distributions around the acupuncture points and channels by visualizing the infrared emissions emanated from the human skin. Our thermal imaging system that is the most sensitive to 10um long infrared wavelength allows us to recognize the actual location of acupuncture point and analyze its functional

Electrical Correlates of Acupuncture Points
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1975Employing a Wheatstone bridge, skin conductance was measured over those putative acupuncture points on the large intestine and pericardium meridians lying between the metacarpophalangeal joints and the elbow. Results were compared to those from anatomically similar locations devoid of acupuncture points.
