Features: The content of this book is a summary of scientific research materials, making it an interdisciplinary work that combines anatomy and acupuncture. The book presents a systematic study of 361 meridian points and commonly used points using the method of frozen face dissection of corpses. By creating various cross-sections of the points, it objectively reflects the anatomical structures involved in acupuncture and clarifies the nerve innervation and central segmental distribution of each anatomical structure. For certain points near important organs, the safe depth, direction, and angle of acupuncture are indicated to prevent accidental injuries caused by blind acupuncture in clinical practice. Additionally, it includes cross-sections along the meridian pathways. The morphological basis of the points reflected in the above content is multifaceted.
The section on the "Abdomen and Pelvis" includes the cross-sectional anatomical structures of the meridian points and extraordinary points of the Foot Taiyang, Foot Taiyin, Ren, and Du meridians in this region. The cross-sections of each point and the cross-sectional anatomical structures along the corresponding meridians are illustrated in color, with clear and visually engaging images. This book is a valuable reference for clinical acupuncturists, educators, researchers, as well as surgeons, massage therapists, and anatomists.
