Clinical Management II Points Review
LU2 - ANS On the antero-lateral aspect of the chest, below the lateral extremity of the clavicle,
6 cun lateral to the midline, in the center of the hollow of the delto-pectoral triangle.
LU3 - ANS On the antero-lateral aspect of the upper arm, 3 cun inferior to the end of the
axillary fold, on the radial side of the biceps brachii muscle.

radial side of the radial artery. Show how LU 9/8/7 correspond to finger positions for pulse
diagnosis.
LU9 - ANS At the wrist joint, depression between the radial artery in the abductor pollicis
longus, level with HT7 (the proximal border of the pisiform bone)
LU11 - ANS On the radial side of the thumb, about 0.1 cun posterior to the corner of the nail
LI1 - ANS On the dorsal aspect of the index finger, at the junction of lines drawn along the
radial border of the nail and the base of the nail, approximately 0.1 cun from the corner of the
nail.
LI2 - ANS On the radial border of the index finger, in a depression just distal to the
metacarpo-phalangeal joint.
LI5 - ANS On the radial side of the wrist, in the center of the hollow formed by the tendons of
extensor pollicis longus and brevis (anatomical snuffbox)
LI7 - ANS 5 cun proximal to LI5 on the line connecting LI5 with LI11
LI9 - ANS "On the radial side of the forearm, 3 cun distal to LI11, on the line connecting LI11
with LI5."
LI11 - ANS At the elbow, midway between LU5 and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, at
the lateral end of the transverse cubital crease
LI12 - ANS When the elbow is flexed, the point is on the lateral side of the upper arm, 1 cun
above Quchi LI-11, on the border of the humerus, just anterior to the lateral supracondylar ridge.
, LI15 - ANS In the depression which lies anterior and inferior to the acromion, at the origin of the
deltoid muscle
LI18 - ANS On the lateral side of the neck, level with the tip of the laryngeal prominence,
between the sternal and clavicular heads of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.
ST1 - ANS With the eyes looking directly forwards, this point is located directly below the pupil
between the eyeball and the infraorbital ridge.
ST6 - ANS Approximately 1 fingerbreadth anterior and superior to the angle of the jaw at the
prominence of the masseter muscle.
ST10 - ANS On the neck at the anterior border of the SCM muscle, midway between ST9 and
ST11.
ST14 - ANS On the chest, in the first intercostal space, 4 cun lateral to the midline, on the
mamillary line.
ST19 - ANS On the abdomen, 2 cun lateral to the midline and 6 cun superior to the umbilicus,
level with REN14.
ST24 - ANS "On the abdomen, 2 cun lateral to the midline and 1 cun superior to the umbilicus,
level with REN9."
ST25 - ANS On the abdomen, 2 cun lateral to the umbilicus.
ST30 - ANS On the lower abdomen, 2 cun lateral to the midline, level with the superior border
of the pubic symphysis
ST34 - ANS On the thigh, on a line drawn between the lateral border of the patella and the
anterior superior iliac spine, in a depression 2 cun proximal to the superior border of the patella
ST38 - ANS On the lower leg, midway between the tibiofemoral joint line and the prominence of
the lateral malleolus, one finger-breadth lateral to the anterior crest of the tibia.
ST40 - ANS On the lower leg, midway between the tibiofemoral joint line and the lateral
malleolus, two finger-breadths lateral to the anterior crest of the tibia.
ST43 - ANS On the dorsum of the foot, between the second and third metatarsal bones, in a
depression 1 cun proximal to ST44.
SP2 - ANS On the medial side of the big toe, in the depression distal and inferior to the first
metatarso-phalangeal joint
