| 20 [LI-20] | What point is at the level of the midpoint of the lateral border of the ala nasi? |
| 20 [LI-20] | For which point would you use a transverse insertion medio-superiorly 0.3 to 0.5 cun or join bitong 鼻通(M-HN-14) at the highest point of the naso-labial groove? |
| 20 [LI-20] | What is the last point of the hand-yangming? |
| LI-2 | Which LI point is located on the radial edge of the 1st phalanx of the index finger, just diestal to the knuckle of the metacarpophalangeal joint in the deptression on the line where the skin changes color/texture? |
| LI-3 | Which LI point is located on the radial edge of the 2nd metacarpal bone, just proximal to the MCP joint on the line where the skin changes color/texture, needle perpendicularly 0.5-0.8 cun? |

| LI-9 | Which LI point is 3 cun distal to LI 11 inline between 5&11, needle perpendicularly 0.5-1 cun? |
| LI-10 | Which LI point is 2 cun distal to LI 11 inline between 5&11, needle perpendicularly 0.5-1 cun? |
| how would you find LI-12? | flex the elbow at a rt. angle, palpate the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and the humeral shaft, run finger down the humeral shaft until you feel the curve begin. needle perpendicularly 0.5-1 cun. |
| LI-13 | which LI point is 3 cun proximal to LI 11 (6 cun distal to tip of axillary crease) and inline btwn. LI 11&15? needle perpendicularly 0.5-1 cun |
