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.

Electrophysiological Assessment of Acupuncture Points
American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 2006This study was designed to assess the occurrence of end plate noise (EPN) in an acupuncture point (AcP).Ten male and 10 female normal volunteers were included in this study. For each subject, mapping of the distribution of EPN loci in an AcP region of Stomach-36 in one leg selected randomly, and also in a nearby non-AcP region in the other leg as a ...

Skeletogenesis and acupuncture points
Progress in Biophysics and Molecular BiologyThe formation of the embryo begins with a "calcium wave" that contributes to the creation of heterogeneities, and then some of them solidify. The further development and a collective information architecture of the embryo is controlled by the so-called morphogenetic field, whose nature is mainly associated with a physical inerton field that is a ...

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 10μm long infrared wavelength allows us to recognize the actual location of acupuncture point and analyze its functional

Acupuncture Points and Skin Impedance
Acupuncture in Medicine, 2013I enjoyed reading the recent article by Rezaei et al 1 in your journal. The authors measured skin impedance on the anterior forearm of 18 participants and found that the impedance of the acupoint PC4 and pericardial meridian were significantly lower than that of the surrounding skin. I would like to express my opinions as follows.

Acupuncture Points of the Cervical Plexus
The American Journal of Chinese Medicine, 1984Acupuncture points in the neck region are basically distributed along the terminal branches of the cervical plexus. There are two components of the plexus, cutaneous and muscular. The cutaneous component of the cervical plexus consists of four major branches which are the lesser occipital, great auricular, transverse cervical, and supraclavicular ...
