title: [Current progress of research on measuring sphygmus information].
abstract: Based on summarizing the physical features to describe the sphygmus information in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), this paper surveys the methodologies of sphygmus measuring, such as single-probe measurement and multi-probe measurement based on pressure sensors, as well as measurement methods based on non-pressure sensors. It is concluded that to achieve the comprehensiveness on the sphygmus information measurement and analysis, researchers need to do further studies of the underlying mechanism and the information properties of the sphygmus. In addition, the sphygmus system should be modeled physically and mathematically.
