    A clinical examination of the path and acupuncture points along the Large Intestine Meridian - one of the meridians pertaining to Chinese Medicine - was conducted using the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test (BDORT). It was found that tracing the results on the surface of the skin, although not exactly identical, was roughly similar to meridian diagrams illustrated within acupuncture textbooks.
