AbstractThe use of acupuncture therapy in various functional disorders goes back several thousand years in China. Recendy, acupuncture becomes a 'hot' topic in the functional Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging research studies [1-4]. A majority of these research projects is to study die correlation between the acupuncture points (acupoints) and die corresponding brain cortices, either by conventional acupuncture, electro-acupuncture or laser acupuncture. Cho et al reported mat by stimulating die vision-related acupoints (BL60, BL65, BL66, BL67) at the lateral side of die foot, neural response (i.e. high signal) was obtained at die visual cortex [1]. In this study, we verified Cho et al acupoints using conventional acupuncture and electro-acupuncture.
