Meridian point-probing device and curative effect-determining device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A meridian point-probing device comprising:
- a pulse wave-detecting unit which detects pulse waves;
a stimulation unit having an end that stimulates a position of skin of a trial subject;
a memory unit which stores pulse waveforms detected by the pulse wave-detecting unit before and after the stimulation of the position by the stimulation unit; and
a meridian point determination unit which determines whether the stimulated position is a meridian point, according to the pulse waveforms stored in the memory unit.

Abstract
A meridian point-probing device includes a pulse wave-detecting unit for detecting pulse waves, a stimulation unit having an end that stimulates a position of skin of a trial subject, a memory unit for storing pulse waveforms detected by the pulse wave-detecting unit before and after the stimulation of the position by the stimulation unit, and a meridian point determination unit for determining whether the stimulated position is a meridian point, according to the pulse waveforms stored in the memory unit. The position of the meridian point can be objectively determined with high reproducibility.
