Examination by means of the skin palpation technique developed by the author's co-worker Tsutomu Kishi yielded the following results. 1. A set of characteristic skin “Keiraku”(meridian) lines exists for each Keiraku. 2. As has been described by Sawada and Shirota, the “Bokokei”(VU) was found to coincide with the first, second, and third lines, and the T M 13 to be located at the seventh cervical vertebra. 3. Subcutaneous indurations belonging to “Yo-keiraku”(positive meridian) are seen as prominences, and those beloning to “In-keiraku”(negative meridian), as depressions, and those belonging to Keiraku of semi-positive, seminegative character included both types. 4. By studies on pulse diagnosis Fujita established the fact that the combination of intraand extra-vascular flow of the body fluids is helical in mode and came to the conclusion that the findings obtained by means of Kishis special technique could probably be analysed as a set of projections of mathematical curves braught about by some changes due to the heical motion of the body fluids. 5. Furthermore the cause of the undulatory change of the Keiraku is presumed to lie in the vibration of automatic movements of the twelve organs, among which the heart is of course the most important. Therefore the author considers that explanation of the undulatory character of Keiraku phenomena can be obtained by simultaneouly taking out the electric action current of each organ and measuring of its intensity in each of the Keiraku (1955, 19/II).
