LI-4-On
the radial aspect of the hand, between the 1st and 2nd metacarpal
bones, closer to the 2nd metacarpal bone and approximately at its
midpoint. | |
LI-5-With
the thumb abducted, in a depression between the tendons of the
extensor pollicis longus and brevis muscles (‘anatomical snuffbox’), on
the radial aspect of the wrist. | |
LU-9- On
the ventral aspect of the wrist, at the level of the wrist joint space
(most distal wrist crease), on the radial aspect of the radial artery
and ulnar to the tendon of the abductor pollicis longus muscle. | |

in the centre of the depression of the mandibular fossa,between the
coronoid process and the condyloid process of the mandible. | |
