- superior to SI 19
2
Q
SI 19
A
- the point lies level with the centre of the tragus
- in a shallow depression which is highlighted when the patient opens mouth
- lies between the tragus and the mandibular joint
3
Q
GB 2
A
- the point lies in front of the most inferior part of the tragus
- in a depression which is highlighted when the patient opens mouth
- below SI 19
4
Q
GB1
A
- lies level with the outer canthus of the eye
- roll finger out laterally from the outer canthus over the ridge of zygomatic bone
- the bone lies in a hollow close to the posterior edge of the bone
5
Q
TB23
A
- run finger out laterally along the eyebrow (supra orbital bone)
- don’t follow the curve down but instead come out laterally to find the depression
- directly above GB 1
6
Q
TB22
A
- find the superior root of the pinna of the ear
- move you finger forwards about 1-1.5 cun at this level
- roughly half a cun from anterior hairline
- you’ll feel the pulse of a small artery, point is superior to artery
- anterior and superior to GB21
7
Q
Bl 1
A
- 0.1 cun superior to the inner cantus of the eye
- palpate with eye shut
- between the bone and eyeball
- might be a V of two veins, needle between or to one side
8
Q
Bl 2
A
- Medial end of the eyebrow
- run finger laterally to find the supra orbital notch
- can be sensitive to pressure
- superior and slightly lateral to bl1
9
Q
St 1
A
- standing directly in front of patient, look for the central of the pupil
- st 1 is directly below between the eyeball and the infra orbital bone
- in the infra orbital notch
10
Q
St 2
A
- half cun below st 1
- run finger over the ridge of bone into the a hollow which is the infra orbital foreman
- use pupil to make sure central
11
Q
St 3
A
- directly below st 1 and 2
- level with the inferior boarder of the nostrils
- little nook in the maxilla bone
12
Q
St 4
A
- also directly in line and below st 1, 2 and 3
- level with the corner on the mouth
- easier with mouth slightly open
- can vary from person to person
13
Q
St 5
A
- on the jaw
- anterior to the masseter muscle
- ask patient to clench jaw but mark with jaw relaxed
14
Q
St 6
A
- go to the angle of the jaw
- one finger width anterior and superior to the angle of the jaw
- in the masseter muscle
- ask patient to clench jaw to find the height of the prominence and theirs a hollow there
15
Q
St 7
A
- lower boarder of the zygomatic arch
- in the depression anterior to the condyloid process
- roughly above St 6
- ask patience to open and close mouth and your finger will fall into the point
16
Q
GB3
A
- above st 7 on the superior boarder of the zygomatic arch
- in a shallow depression on the anterior boarder of the hairline
- on a level midway between root of pinna and highest level of tragus
17
Q
GB 14
A
- centre of the pupil to the eye
- third of the way above the eyebrow
- just above the bulge of the glabella
18
Q
LI 19
A
- just below the nose
- look for the lateral margin of the nostrils
- 1 third of the way down between the nose and the lips
- palpable for a gap on the teeth
19
Q
LI 20
A
- lateral to the nose
- find the widest part of the nostrils, the natal allum- level to this
- in the natal labial grove
20
Q
SI 18
A
- find the other cantus and run finger down until you find the inferior boarder of the cheek bone
- anterior to the masseter muscle
- clench teeth to highlight, mark with teeth relaxed
21
Q
Ren 24
A
- on the midline on the chin crease below the lower lip
- might be able to feed the teeth line below
22
Q
Du25
A
- on the tip of the nose
23
Q
Du 26
A
- where the philtrum joins the gum
- you can feel the teeth gap beneath
24
