Abstract
A vehicle with 16 electrodes for the two-dimensional electrical admittance mapping of human skin is presented. Measurements on 20 test subjects have been carried out and analyzed for the possible detection of line patterns in the electrical properties of the skin, claimed to coincide with the so-called acupuncture meridian lines of ancient Chinese medicine. No such lines were found.
