A Correlation Study between Two Adjacent Same-Meridian Acupoints after Laser-Needle Acupuncture with Optical Coherence Tomography and Diffuse Reflectance Spectra

Table 2

Decrease of RIs of the LI5 and LI4 acupoints after the LI5 acupoint was irradiated for 15 and 45 minutes at 2 minutes, respectively.
