Ren-11
  Location On the anterior midline, 3 cun superior to the umbilicus. How to find The distance between the sternocostal angle and the centre of the umbilicus is divided into 8 cun, which can vary considerably from the patient’s finger cun. Therefore, only proportional cun measurements should be applied here (helpful device: elastic tape ). From the centre of the umbilicus, measure 3 cun in a superior direction and there locate Ren-11 on the anterior midline. Located on the same level are ➞ KID-18 (0.5 cun lateral to the midline), ➞ ST-22 (2 cun lateral to the midline) and ➞ SP-16 (4 cun lateral to the midline).
