Comparison between results of analysis using an apparatus for measuring the meridians and their corresponding internal organs (AMI) and data obtained by oriental medical diagnosis (Part 3): healthy volunteers and patients Author: Kitade T//Sinohara S//Watsuji T//Yamamoto T//// Affiliation: Meiji University of Oriental Medicine Conference/Journal: J Mind-Body Science Date published: 2000 Other: Volume ID: 9 , Issue ID: 2 , Pages: 9-15 , Word Count: 94 The apparatus for measuring the meridians and corresponding organs (AMI) is used to determine whether each meridian in the human body is 'deficient' or 'excessive' based on the before polarization (BP) value. We compared results of measurements using an AMI with diagnostic data obtained by oriental medical methods (four techniques of diagnosis). As a result, AMI measurements indicated 'deficient' in the patient group and 'excessive' in healthy volunteer group. Inversion and a right and left difference were not remarkable in the two groups. Oriental medical findings shows a characteristic difference in the two groups.
