To seek a precise and simple method for localization of acupoint in anatomical experiment teaching. Medical bone needles were inserted into acupoints. Then, self-mode copper probe needles were thrust along the center of the bone needles to open the inner structures of acuppoints. And probe needles were replaced by colored plastic tubes. Finally, bone needles were withdrawn so as to fix the plastic tubes into the acupoints to facilitate the later cutting. This method for acupoint anatomic positioning is of low cost with accurate positioning and simple manipulation, which has advantages in strong experimental and innovative values.
