ABSTRACT
The abdominal diagnosis plays an essential role in Japanese Kampo medicine. Moreover, this diagnostic method is a characteristic practice in Kampo medicine. The conventional method of abdominal diagnosis is performed with the patient in a supine position. However, the author has found that several patients have presented with tenderness of the epigastrium or hypochondrium in a standing position, which was not detected in a conventional supine position. This paper is intended to announce the significance of a new method of abdominal diagnosis named “Ritsuishin”. In this paper, the author describes the utility of this method via a case of saikokeishikankyoto and of hontonto (Chugoho).
