Features: This book adopts modern medical disease names and their classification methods. It covers approximately 570 diseases, divided into nine parts. Part I is the General Introduction; Part II is Internal Medicine Diseases; Part III is Gynecological Diseases; Part IV is Pediatric Diseases; Part V is Surgical Diseases; Part VI is Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, and Stomatology; Part VII is Ophthalmology; Part VIII is Traditional Chinese Medicine Geriatrics; and Part IX is Japanese and Korean Traditional Medicine Diagnostic and Treatment Experiences. The appendix introduces normal values of modern medical clinical laboratory tests, the five-zang syndrome differentiation criteria, references for modern Chinese medicine pharmacological research, and references for the application of new Chinese medicine preparations for consultation. The entire book follows the principle of "combining symptoms and signs," explaining the clinical manifestations and test results of diseases in various modern medical disciplines from the perspective of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment. It focuses on specific treatment methods and related measures rather than theoretical discussions. The book mostly adopts the modern medical staging and classification of diseases in various disciplines, aiming to closely align with TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment for greater clinical applicability. In terms of treatment methods, the author prioritizes effective and practical methods based on extensive personal experience, while also referencing modern clinical reports. For certain diseases or specific stages where the author's experience is less extensive than reported by others, the book cites them flexibly, always prioritizing the best current options. For diseases where TCM treatment is currently ineffective or uncertain, the book objectively points this out, sometimes introducing promising but exploratory treatment methods for further research and application.
