Design of Electrical Device for Robust Detection and Diagnosis of Human Body Organs through Acupuncture Point

Muhammad Shahzad Alam khan

Humans are suffering from a lot of diseases, being diagnosed with various biomedical devices for treatment. Acupuncture treatment method on human body is performed with thin needles, which was dangerous and painful in the ancient time. Each organ in human body is linked with specific acupuncture points that report the disorder of the organ. Therefore, in this study, we designed a robust electrical device to trace function of the body organs through the acupuncture point. Our device diagnoses through electrical stimulation of specific acupuncture points and provides the information in the form of graphical view. The detected acupuncture points are presented on meridian lines of organs i.e. lungs, heart, small intestine and large intestine. After successful detection of acupuncture points, the device is switched to therapy mode by generating the electrical signals to normalize the function of human organ. The device is user friendly, reliable and voltage is properly controlled by specific electronic component.
