Abstract
Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) is characterized as the dynamic, real-time and continuous visualization, the quantitative and qualitative localization,the simple operation and the absence of use contraindication. As a tool for auxiliary examination, treatment, evaluation and research, in acupuncture and moxibustion, MSUS may improve the accuracy of acupoint location, guide the direction and depth of needle insertion, monitor the reactions of deqi, guarantee the safety of operation and quantify the effect evaluation. Hence, it may provide an objective basis for acupuncture and moxibustion research and be conductive to display the operation techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion by means of objective approaches such as imaging and data.
