Z�ng f� pattern identification (臟腑辯證 z�ng f� bi�n zh�ng) is a method that is used to analyze the signs and symp�toms of disease according to the physiological functions and pathological characteristics of the z�ng f� organs, individually and in concert with other organs. On this basis, one can infer the etiology, pathology, location and nature of a disease. It also reveals the condition of the body’s normal (antipathogenic) qi and its ability to battle pathogenic qi.\n\nAll physiological functions and pathological changes are associated with the z�ng f� organs. Most often, the occurrence and development of disease is the result of z�ng f� organ dysfunction. Z�ng f� pattern identification is one of the core diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine and is the foundation for clinical analysis and differentiation of every disease, particularly for interior and chronic conditions.\n\nZang Fu Pattern Identification Study Guide provides an in\-depth description and analysis of the physiological characteristics, common etiological factors and pathological patterns of each of the z�ng f� organs. Part I explores the five z�ng or ‘solid’ yin organs, and Part II the six f� or ‘hollow’ yang organs. Similar patterns are differentiated from one another. \n\nPart III examines the most common compound or complex patterns involving pathology between two or more associated organs. Part IV addresses more difficult questions that require deeper exploration. Rounding out the book in Part V is a comprehensive self\-examination with 200 questions and answers based on the material in the text.
