摘要
Skin impedance has been proposed as indirect evidence of the specificity of acupuncture points. Based on the above, a caution is essential for interpretation that acupuncture points or meridians are electrically distinguishable when anatomical components underneath the acupuncture points and non-acupuncture points are distinct. Rezaei et al presented an appealing study and I would not hesitate in recommending their article to anyone interested in the field of alternative medicine.
