Abstract:
Objective:To construct an analytic method aimed at the characteristics of the commonly method of supplementing and pouring of acupuncture based on the analysis and modeling of ultrasound images around acupoint region in the process of acupuncture.Methods:A total of 7 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in Beijing Zhongguancun Hospital from June,2022 to June,2023 were selected,and their Kongzui acupoints were acupunctured by 10 acupuncturists with associate senior title as 4 kinds of acupuncture manipulations included reinforcing by twisting and rotating(RFTR),reducing by twisting and rotating(RDTR),reinforcing by lifting and thrusting(RFLT),and reducing by lifting and thrusting(RDLT).The B-ultrasound diagnostic device was used to collect the images of muscle and fascial tissue below the acupoint,so as to construct the model of images.The definition of virtual acupuncture point was adopted to study the regulation of perturbation of subcutaneous tissue that was caused after the skin was acupunctured by needle.The change regulation of the virtual acupuncture point of muscle bundle below skin at Zuikong acupoint of subjects was analyzed.Results:The difference value of average absolution value between peak and trough of the trajectory of virtual acupuncture point of twisting and rotating was 0.066±0.045,and the average value of amplitude of this method was less than that(0.428±0.276)of lifting and thrusting method,and the twisting and rotating method was uniform and symmetrical,and there was difference between two kinds of acupuncture methods.The characteristics of computer graphics was used to qualify the work effect of lifting and thrusting,and reinforcing and reducing,which showed the heavy insertion and light lifting of RFLT,and showed heavy lifting and light insertion of RDLT,thus distinguished the two methods[(RFLT)and(RDLT)].Conclusions:The ultrasound imaging and computer graphics can be used to analyze the regularity of the common"reinforcing and reducing"method of acupuncture and moxibustion.
