Abstract:
The relationship between the Thalamus and the Meridians has been studied using Bi-Digital O-Ring test and the neurotransmitters (GABA, Adrenalin, Noradrenaline, Serotonin, Acetylcholin and Dopamin).
Hypothalamus tissue was added to the neurotransmitters in order to increase the response.
The Thalamus was divided in the six anatomically groups: Anterior, Medial and Lateral nuclear group, Medial and Lateral geniculate body and Pulvinar.
The Lung, Heart, Small Intestine, Sanjiao and the Liver Meridians were found to be connected to the Lateral geniculate body.
The Large Intestine, Spleen, Kidney and the Gall Bladder Meridians were found to be connected to the Medial geiculate body.
The Stomach, and Bladder were found to be connected to the Medial nuclear group. The Pericardium were found to be connected to the Lateral nuclear group.
The results indicate that the Meridians are connected to the Central Nervous System.
