What you see on the photo on the left IS acupuncture meridian. Korean scientists discovered a way to make pictures of acupuncture meridians to help visualise them.
What is Acupuncture meridian?
If you have read anything about acupuncture you would have heard about acupuncture meridians. Acupuncture meridians are the lines which connect the acupuncture points with each other as well as with internal organs. Physiologically these are the lines that the acupuncture sensation travels when acupuncture points are stimulated.
How did scientists make a photo of an acupuncture meridian?
Korean researchers found a way to reveal the anatomy of these meridians and to visualise them in this breakthrough study. They used fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles to detect a tissue which was not detectable using stereomicroscopes.
