Meanwhile the research of COPD in TCM will come into a new stage through the use of metabonomics. This article overviewed the current situation of Chinese medicine using metabolomics technology to raise its theory, science and diagnostic level, and the study of pulmonary-qi deficiency syndrome of COPD with metabonomics.
