[Sphygmological characteristics in San zhi chan (Buddhist Zen of Three Fingers)].
Zhou Xueting knew very well about the origin of sphygmology. In his works San zhi chan (Buddhist Zen of Three Fingers), he used antitheses to point out the mild pulse, which is the pulse condition of a normal people. By comparing 26 types of abnormal pulse, the outline is compact and catchy. He advocated the sense by insight, diagnosing the illness by pulse taking of three fingers. For common diseases, he adopted the method that closely combines the pulse, the symptom and the treatment together. This book occupied an important position in the studying of sphygmology.
