Abstract
As one of the basic concepts of the Chinese medicine, the theory of Meridians and Collaterals is lack of scientific demonstration so far. In order to verify the existence of Meridians and Collaterals, a method based on the electric technique and information theory is suggested, A specialized electrode array has been designed and an experimental scheme of signal stimulating and detecting was introduced. The response signals at different points on skin surface were analyzed. A difference between the signal amplitudes along a Meridian and on its sides was found. The study on Meridian based on the electric technique and information theory is one of the important fields of bioelectronics.
