Abstract:
The objectification of tongue and pulse diagnosis in TCM transforms tongue and pulse images into quantitative data through modern technology, and shows multi-dimensional application value in tumor diagnosis and treatment. In terms of tongue diagnosis, the characteristic tongue images of tumor patients are related to pathological indicators such as serum factors and tongue coating microflora, which can assist in diagnosis, syndrome differentiation and efficacy evaluation. The machine learning model preliminarily realizes the recognition of tongue images of tumors such as gastric cancer. In terms of pulse diagnosis, the abnormal pulse condition collected by the sensor is related to the abnormal vascular structure and hemodynamics. The Jin's "chongbo" index and pulse graph parameters can be used for tumor malignancy judgment and efficacy monitoring. The deep learning algorithm improves the accuracy of pulse analysis. However, there are some problems in the current research, such as small sample size, inconsistent equipment standards, and insufficient tongue and pulse information fusion. In the future, through multi-modal data integration, machine learning optimization and large sample verification, it is necessary to promote the combination of tongue and pulse objectification technology and TCM syndrome differentiation theory, build a standardized diagnosis model, and provide objective support for accurate diagnosis and treatment of tumors.
