| Research Abstract |
In traditional Chinese medicine, blood pulse information obtained around the Radius is important to know the physical condition of the human body. This information has been observed sensuously by the fingers of the doctor. In order to determine this information quantitatively and to understand it qualitatively, we developed a pulse phenomena measuring system and a method to make the diagnoses through fuzzy theory based on Chinese medicine principles. On the other hand, it is well known that conductivity of the skin is influenced by state changes of various physical conditions of the human body. The skin of the palms is especially important in Chinese medicine for knowing physical conditions because both palms have representative places for various organs of the body. Then, sometimes diagnoses are made by checking the palms. Because the voltage map of the palms is changed by various physical conditions of the body, we developed a palm voltage measuring system. Furthermore, we proposed a new system which measures the equivalent admittances of the palms and simulates the simple equivalent CR circuit for diagnosis, and to extend the previous work, an improved system which accurately measures equivalent admittances of the palms and simulates a simple equivalent CR circuit for diagnosis is investigated. And it is found that a telephone line should be used as the transmission method of data.
