3D reconstructed image of the skull and cerebral cortex. (a) Vertical view of the cranium. (b) Vertical view of the 3D reconstructed cortical image and GV20 acupoint. (c) Mid-sagittal plane and ear lobe connecting coronal plane to demonstrate GV20 acupoint. (d) Lateral view with crossing of mid-sagittal plane and ear-lobe connecting coronal plane (blue region: precentral sulcus, green region: central sulcus, asterisk: Baihui acupoint).
