This study was investigated so that reliability of disease mechanism diagnosis would be examined, the estimation about disease mechanism item of Questionnaires and the relations of disease mechanism would be inquired about 'health diagnosis program' Questionnaires which were used for the object diagnosis of Oriental medicine in the department of Oriental OB&GY, Oriental Medical hospital of Dong-Eui University. We analyzed the results of Questionnaires for 3354 outpatients who had OB & GY disease in the Oriental Medical hospital of Dong-Eui University from April 2000 to March 2004. The diagnosis Questionnaires(after DSOM (r) S.1.1) was the figures 188, the health diagnosis Questionnaires (after DSOM (r) S.1.1) was the figures 137. phiegm deficiency of qi was used in DSOM (r) R.1.1 as it is. The reliability of DSOM (r) S.1.1 was usually higher than DSOM (r) R.1.1 in deficiency of qi blood stasis insufficiency of Yang heat syndrom damp, 5 case disease mechanism. The reliability of DSOM (r) S.1.1 was usually lower than DSOM (r) R.1.1 in blood deficiency stagnation of qi coldness damp dryness liver heart spleen kidney, 8 case disease mechanism. but the great difference wasn't seen, therefore both DSOM (r) S.1.1 and DSOM (r) R.1.1 had similar result. A meeting point both DSOM (r) S.1.1 and DSOM (r) R.1.1 was above 90% in liver spleen blood stasis blood deficiency, 4 case disease mechanism with the exception of phlegm deficiency of Yim nothing of fluctuations of question. A meeting point of coldness that was 82.47% was lowest, A meeting point of the rest disease mechanism was above 85%. The effect that contributed in producing disease mechanism result and in which pure question was over relevance calculation 0.9, insufficiency of Yang damp phlegm that contributed in producing disease mechanism result was lower comparatively in DSOM (r) R.1.1. But the effect that contributed in producing disease mechanism result and in which pure question was over relevance calculation 0.9 except spleen kidney phlegm in DSOM (r) S.1.1

This study is about researching mechanistic pattern identification of disease for DongEuiBoGam NaeGyungPyen by analysing with pattern identification of modern Traditional Korean medical patholgy as more logical, systematic and standardized theory. Disease pattern mechanisms of uterine, urine and excrements parts of DongEuiBoGam NaeGyun gPyen in NaeGyungPyen of DongEuiBoGam are these. Menstrual irregularities in DongEuiBoGam can be classified flui d-humor depletion, blood deficiency, qi deficiency, qi stagnation, qi stagnation complicated by heat, blood stasis, blood deficiency complicated by heat, syndrome of heat entering blood chamber, syndrome of cold entering blood chamber. The disease pattern of abdominal pain after menstruation in DongEuiBoGam is blood deficiency complicated by heat, and a dysmenorrhea represents blood stasis with heat, fluid-humor deficiency. Advanced menstruation represent dual heat of the qi and blood, delayed menstruation is blood deficiency. The disease pattern of inhibited urination in DongEuiBoGam can be classified deficiency heat pattern of kidney yin deficiency(yin deficiency with effulgent fire), kidney qi deficiency, yin deficiency with yang hyperactivity, fluid-humor depletion, spleen-stomach dual deficiency, and excess he at pattern of bladder excess heat. The disease pattern of urinary incontinence in DongEuiBoGam can be classified deficiency pattern of kidney-bladder qi deficiency, consumptive disease, lung qi deficiency, kidney yin deficiency(yin deficiency with effulgent fire), kidney yang deficiency and excess pattern of lower energizer blood amassment, bladder excess heat. And most of them are deficiency from deficiency-excess Pattern Identification. The disease pattern of diarrhea in DongEuiBoGam can be classified deficiency pattern of qi deficiency, qi fall, spleen yang deficiency, kidney yang deficiency and so on and excess pattern of wind-cold-summerheat-dampness-fire, phlegm-fluid retention, dietary irregularities, qi movement stagnation. And most of them are deficiency from deficiency-excess Pattern Identification. Like these, this study identify pattern of disease in DongEuiBoGam by mechanism of disease theory.

It is impossible to overestimate the importance of the medical examination. The medical examination and treatment method is composed of Mang(inspection)-Moon(listening)-Moon(anammesis & question)-Jeol(pulse feeling, precussion etc.). Among these 4 methods, the Diagnosis of the Abdominal Region, which is one of the JeolJin, is regarded as the most important method along with pulse feeling. The Diagnosis of the Abdominal Region, which includes the examination of the symptoms and their changes in stomach area to understand the pathological progress of the JangFu, Meridian and Qi-Blood, has been highly emphasized in Western and Eastern Medical Science. External trouble, for instance a cold, can be detected by examining pulse, Internal trouble, for instance indigestion, by Diagnosis of the Abdominal Region. Though the Diagnosis of the Abdominal Region was the important part of the JeolJin, it was often devaluated. The Diagnosis of the Abdominal Region will also be composed of 4 kinds of method on Mang-Moon-Moon-Jeol. We thought that the first of the Abdominal Region Diagnosis is a Mangjin(inspection). So we present the new viewpoint of the abdomen of a diagnosis through emphasizing the importance of Mangjin(inspection).

The acupuncture procedures in Hwangjenaekyung (黃帝內經) was different to modern ones in many aspects. Especially, the role of pulse diagnosis in acupuncture was totally different and the pulse diagnosis was essential part in acupuncture therapy in Hwangjenaekyung era. We found four noteworthy features on the pulse diagnosis before and after acupuncture in Hwangjenaekyung : (1) Pulse diagnosis was a mandatory process in acupuncture (2) Doctors who used pulse diagnosis in 12 meridians (十二經脈遍診脈法), pulse diagnosis in 9 points of 3 body parts (三部九候脈法), and comparative pulse diagnosis between radial artery and carotid artery (人迎寸口對比脈法) followed the former rule ((1)). (3) The major pulse features to detect before and after acupuncture were conversion between the vacuous pulse (虛脈) and the replete pulse (實脈), and conversion between slippery pulse (滑脈) and rough pulse (澁脈). (4) Deukki (得氣, Deqi) was synonym of Kiji (氣至), and it referred to the changes of arterial pulse, not the sensation followed by acupuncture manipulation.

It fuses into culture of the East and the West in use of color ; colors of five direction, which had been from the Five Phase Theory in East Asia. Formative ability of color fields in a formative early Oriental Medicine history as well. Color is a very important factor and a necessary step of visible diagnosis. As a human's body is maintained and alive under the control of spirit and spirit is stored by five viscera, so spirit expresses the change of five viscera and is reflected by color. Visible diagnosis consists of spirit, appearance, Qi and color and movement. The purpose of each visible diagnosis is that we would know states of essence, Qi and spirit in patient's body. To ancient Asia people 'to see' was a kind of insight to the object as a whole. Similarily the activity of seeing the human body was the integral part of making diagnosis of a patient. This was the cause that there was suggested the discussion of the Five color theory in Oriental Medicine as a counterpart to that of the 'Goethe for Zur Farbenlehrer'. The inspection of Oriental Medicine was not a simple gazing of the eye as a sense organ, but the total insight to the internal state of the patient. For that reason, the eye－perception in early Chinese medicine was the reading the signs of the internal body which had have not the visual form but the flux of the internal life.

1. Objectives: The objectives of this paper are to report Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Constitution Theory and the present state of Chinese Health Administration Center. 2. Methods: We visited China for "China Technology Survey" in 2009. Our purposes were to research for the study of constitutional medicine in China and to search for the Development Plan of Constitutional Medicine Through the Research of Chinese Constitutional Medicine. This paper is the report of the "China Technology Survey". 3. Results & Conclusions: In China, the concept and diagnosis of TCM constitutions is nine(Balanced Constitution, Qi-deficient Constitution, Yang-deficient Constitution, Yin-deficient Constitution, Phlegm-dampness Constitution, Damp-heat Constitution, Stagnant blood Constitution, Stagnant qi Constitution, Inherited specific Constitution). And Chinese government established the Classification and Diagnosis Standards for the Constitutions of TCM in 2009. TCM Constitution Theory is being widely applied at Health Administration Center that treats 'predisease' patients. Theses Chinese clinical implications of constitutional medicine are a good example for "Sasang Constituional Medicine" Care Service.

This study examined the relationship between aminotransferase and DITI in the diagnosis of Liver Qi stagnation. An analysis was performed on the thermographic findings of 17 subjects with abnormally high aminotransferase value and 26 with no problem in blood sample at the Kangnam Korean Hospital, KyungHee University, Seoul, Korea, from March 2003 to May 2003. The body temperature was assessed by DITI thermographic measurements were performed on Rt. and Lt. subcostal area. Value of ${\delta}T$ and absolute value of ${\delta}T$ were tested by Mann-whitney U test. The absolute value of ${\delta}T$ was statistically significant(P<0.00). The ${\delta}T$ was also significant(P<0.01) and the temperature of Rt. area was higher than that of Lt. area. It is believed that DITI may be a favorable alternative to the diagnosis of Liver Qi stagnation.
