* The ‘standard’ point Ex-UE-7 (yaotongdianor yaotongxue) is described by Nguyen Van Nghi and Schnorrenberger as two separate points with different pinyin
names: PaM or ZP110 (weiling) and 111 (jingling). Their location also corresponds to handpoint 2.
†Nguyen Van Nghi and Schnorrenberger distinguish between luozhen(PaM or ZP108) and wailaogong(PaM or ZP109). They describe the location of luozhenas iden-
tical with the ‘standard’ location of Ex-UE-8 (wailaogong): on the dorsum of the hand, between the 2nd and 3rd metacarpal bones, approximately 0.5 cun proximal to the
metacarpophalangeal joint. ‘Their’ wailaogongis located at the midpoint of a line connecting the wrist and the head of the 3rd metacarpal bone, between the
metacarpals, directly opposite to the point laogong(P-8) – hence the name wailaogong(‘outer’ laogong).
‡NP74(jiansanzhen/Three pinpricks at the Shoulder) according to Schnorrenberger: a set of three points: the first is identical with L.I.-15(jianyu), the second (jianquan/ Anterior
to the Shoulder) is located 1 cun superior to the end of the anterior axillary fold, and the third (jianhou/Posterior to the Shoulder) is located 1 cun superior to the end of the posterior
axillary fold.
§According to Deadman et al. (1998), M-UE-48(jianqian) is located midway between the end of the anterior axillary fold and L.I.-15(this point is not mentioned by
the Shanghai College). See the point page for the location of this point.
