Abstract:
The course of the Spleen Meridian has been studied using to different test: Bi-Digital O-Ring Test plus the neurotransmitter adrenalin or tissue from spleen and pancreas.
No difference was found between the two tests and both were found to connected to the Medial Geniculate Boddy of the thalamus and area 23 of the Cerebral Cortex.
In the peripheral course of the meridian the result of the test was identical except from one part.
When pancreas tissue was used, the spleen meridian was found to start at the hallux. When spleen tissue was used, the spleen meridian was found to start 2mm from the lateral border of the hallux.
In both cases the course of the meridian followed the Large Intestine Meridian.
A branch was found to go from Large Intestine 6 to Pericardiur 4.
The spleen-pancreas meridian ended at Large Intestine 1, although in some cases it ended on the medial side of the finger.
In both cases the course of the spleen meridian continued to the head.
Between triple heater 17 and small lntestine 17 their course was found to be mutual. At this point the spleen-pancreas test-meridian stopped, while spleen-spleen test meridian continued to stomach 9.
