经穴—脑相关假说指导下经穴特异性、针刺得气、配伍规律脑功能界定

将脑功能成像技术(PET、SPECT、fMRI)运用于经穴特异性研究,提出"经穴-脑相关假说",基于人的活体状态、脑的功能活动、客观的图像和数据分析,以期①建立"经穴脑功能界定模型",以解决经穴的定义问题,即凡是符合该模型的基本要素的"点",即可定义为"经穴",从而区分经穴和非穴;②建立"经穴得气脑功能界定模型",以明确经穴得气的脑功能反应的实质,即凡是符合该模型的基本要素的"得气",即可定义为"得气",从而区分得气和非得气;③研究经穴循经取穴的穴位配伍特点和规律。

A cerebral functional definition on the specificity of acupoints, needling sensation and association of acupoints based on the "acupoints-brain relation hypothesis"

"Acupoints-brain relation hypothesis" is put forward according to the combination of cerebral functional imaging techniques, positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and the studies of the essence of acupoints. Analysis based on the living state of human being, the cerebral function and the objective images and data will result in: (1) a model of cerebral functional imaging for the definition of acupoints, any points that coincide the basic factors of the model can be definited as an acupoint; (2) a model of cerebral functional imaging for needling sensation, any cerebral functional changes caused by needling coincide the basic factors of the model can be definited as needling sensation; (3) a study on characteristics and regular patterns of association of the acupoints selected along channels.
