When the upper arm is abducted, the point is in the center of the axilla, on the medial side of the axillary artery
H2
When the elbow is flexed, the point is 3 cun above the medial end of the transverse cubital crease (H-3), in the groove medial to m. biceps brachii
H3
With the elbow flexed, at the midpoint of the line connecting the medial end of the cubital crease and the medial epicondyle of the humerus
P2
2 cun below the level of the anterior axillary fold, between the two heads of m. biceps brachii
P3

L4
On the medial aspect of the upper arm, 4 cun below the anterior end of the axillary fold, or 5 cun above the cubital crease on the radial side of m. biceps brachii
L5
On the cubital crease, in the depression of the radial side of the tendon of m. biceps brachii. Located with the elbow slightly flexed.
SI8
When the elbow is flexed, the point is located in the depression between the olecranon of the ulna and the medial epicondyle of the
humerus

SJ14
On the shoulder, posterior to LI-15, in the depression inferior and posterior to the acromion when the arm is abducted
LI11
When the elbow is flexed, the point is in the depression at the lateral end of the transverse cubital crease, midway between L-5 and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus
LI12
