origins of the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles. | |
HE-1-With the arm abducted, in the centre of the axilla, medial to the axillary artery. | |
HE-3-With
the elbow flexed, this point is in a depression between the ulnar end
of the transverse cubital crease and the medial epicondyle of the
humerus. | |
HE-7-On
the ventral aspect of the wrist joint space (‘most distal wrist
crease’), radial to the insertion of the tendon of the flexor carpi
ulnaris muscle. | |
LI-11-With
the elbow flexed, on the lateral end of the elbow crease, in a
depression between the end of the crease and the lateral epicondyle of
the humerus, on the extensor carpi radialis longus muscle. | |
LI-18-On
the lateral aspect of the neck, at the level of the laryngeal
prominence, between the two heads of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (➞
3.2). | |
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. | |
LIV-2-Between the 1st and 2nd toes, proximal to the margin of the interdigital web. | |
LIV-3-On
the dorsum of the foot, between the 1st and 2nd metatarsal bones, in
the depression proximal to the metatarsophalangeal joints and the
proximal angle between the two bones. | |
P-6-2
cun proximal to the anterior wrist joint space (‘most distal wrist
crease’), between the tendons of the palmaris longus and flexor carpi
radialis muscles. | |
Ren-15-On the anterior midline, 1 cun inferior to the sternocostal angle or 7 cun superior to the umbilicus. | |
ST-12-In the supraclavicular fossa, superior to the midpoint of the clavicle, approximately 4 cun lateral to the anterior midline. | |
ST-29-1 cun above the upper border of the pubic symphysis or 4 cun below the umbilicus and 2 cun lateral to the anterior midline. | |
ST-36-3
cun distal to ➞ ST-35 (‘lateral eye of the knee’) and 1 fingerbreadth
lateral to the anterior crest of the tibia, on the tibialis anterior
muscle. | |
ST-9-1.5
cun lateral to the anterior midline, on the level of the laryngeal
prominence and at the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. | |
T.B.-3-On
the dorsum of the hand, in a depression between the 4th and 5th
metacarpal bones, proximal to the metacarpophalangeal joints. T.B.-3 is
located at the junction between the heads and shafts of the two
metacarpal bones. | |
T.B.-5-2 cun proximal to the dorsal wrist joint space (‘dorsal wrist crease’), between the radius and the ulna. | |
