应用于针灸研究的人体穴位模型

Human acupoint model for acupuncture and moxibustion research

为了更好地发展和研究中国的传统医学——针灸,设计了一种新型的用于针灸学研究的人体穴位模型认知系统。该系统采用1片微型处理器(MCU)作为模型的中央控制单元,通过对MCU的I/O口进行扩展,采用计算机高级语言和汇编语言相结合的方式,通过MAX232芯片实现PC和单片机的数据通讯,从而实现PC和人体模型间利用软件控制的输入与输出,进而实现已知经络和全部穴位的显示与认知。整个系统结构简单,运行可靠稳定,使用方便,可广泛应用于中医针灸的理论教学和实践。

In this paper, a novel human acupoint and moxibustion model cognitive system for acupuncture research is designed in order to develop and study traditional Chinese medicine. A micro-chip unit （MCU） is used as the central processing unit for the system. By means of expanding the number of MCU＇s I/O, combining the computer high-level language with assembly language together, using MAX232 serial port chip to realize the data communication between personal computer and MCU, the input and output are carried out by the software program between PC and acupoint model. And then, the display and cognition of meridians and acupoints can be implemented. This human acupoint model for acupuncture and moxibustion, with the merits of stable performance and convenient usage, can be widely used for Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion theory teaching and practice.
