Summary: | 碩士 === 中國醫藥學院 === 中國醫學研究所 === 83 === Tongue diagnosis was an unique diagnosis in Chinese medicine. It is one of the most important Chinese medicine theory systems. Tongue diagnosis is under the distruction of a complete Chinese medicine theory and the mutual influence of different schools from many generations. The theory was handed down and changed for the better by each school and through a long term clinical experiment and gradually became a systematic rule. From the history of tongue diagnosis in Chinese medicine, many books were written such as Hwang Di Nay Gin, Shang Harn Tzar Bin Luen, et al.
