Method： The thermaCATMT P30 infrared thermal imaging system was selected to measure the infrared radiation temperature on body surface of eight points in four meridians in 74 patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands and 63 healthy people. Results： The infrared radiation temperatures on body surface of right Youmen （KI 21） in cases with hyperplasia of mammary glands were significantly higher than the healthy people （P=-0.009）, and the infrared radiation temperatures on left Youmen （KI 21） and other points had no significant difference with healthy people （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： The infrared radiation temperatures on body surface of right Youmen （KI 21） have significant differences with healthy people. This might occur because of the pathogenesis of hyperplasia of mammary glands and of the specificity of the point Youmen （KI 21）.展开更多
