Abstract
Objectives: There are four types of diagnostic methods in Oriental medicine, and visual inspection is the first method among them. This study was written in order to complement further understanding on visual inspection. Methods: The authors reviewed a word related with visual inspection in Nei-Ching. The authors researched static words such as bigger/smaller, longer/shorter, slower/faster, curved/straight, one-sided/fair, and groove/uplift, and active words such as extension and contraction, shake, tremor, slow, fast, walk, run, standing, lying, and sitting related with visual inspection in Nei-Ching. Results: The static words linked with visual inspection are related with skin, muscles, fat, and especially the liver, stomach, and large intestine. The active words linked with visual inspection are related with movement of muscles, fat, and bone. Conclusion: In this study, the authors provided further understanding on visual inspection in Nei-Ching. However, there was no clear reference point about appearances and movements.
