It is a bridge that connects the basics of TCM with all branches of clinical medicine and includes inspecting the symptoms or manifestations, analyzing the changes, understanding the pathomechanisms, and predicting the transformation of diseases. TCM diagnosis consists of two major areas of study, examination and testing (zhên) and decision and judgment (duàn). Examination and testing techniques are used to collect information from the patient. Decision and judgment uses this information, which is sorted, analyzed, synthe¬sized, and reasoned on the basis of TCM theory. This book is organized around the four pillars of TCM diagnosis: inspection, inquiry, listening and smelling, and palpation. In this text, each aspect is explained in a clear and systematic manner, with generous use of tables and illustrations. This is followed by a series of review questions for deeper understanding. A comprehensive self-examination consisting of 200 multiple choice questions, with a separate key to the answers, tests the reader s understanding of the important points of each aspect of diagnosis. These questions, many of which are presented in case study format, will help students prepare for the board exams. Review: Great resource - As a visual learner, the diagrams and charts, and the organization of the book make it easier to understand the concepts in a tangible way. Really appreciate having this as a resource. Review: A superb text on diagnosis - The TCM Diagnosis Study Guide is definetly one for your bookshelf. This book makes a wonderful companion to other books on diagnosis, as it is an excellent resource for further study. The diagrams, summaries and charts make it an absolute necessity if you are more of a visual learner. The inclusion of "questions and answers for deeper insight" at the end of each section provide just that, deeper understanding of the concepts presented. The 200 question multiple choice test at the end of the book (answer key provided) will definetly help you to see how well you understand the material. I have done a lot of research into books on TCM, and I have found these 3 are the best to use in conjunction: 1- Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis Study Guide 2- Chinese Traditional Herbal Medicine Volume I Diagnosis and Treatment 3- Chinese Traditional Herbal Medicine Vol.II Materia Medica & Herbal Ref These 3 books make a wonderful "home study" course. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #130,955 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #5 in Medical Diagnosis (Books) #14 in Chinese Medicine | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 152 Reviews | ## Images ![Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis Study Guide - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815l5yc19xL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great resource *by R***G on June 4, 2022* As a visual learner, the diagrams and charts, and the organization of the book make it easier to understand the concepts in a tangible way.

Visual inspection, smelling, asking and palpating are the only "tools" that a TCM practiitioner has. This book is divided into 4 main parts. What to look out for? What to ask the patient? What smells to detect? What do the different kinds of pulses indicate? Through all these diagnostic methods, the practitioner should be able to get a coherent picture of the syndrome that is affecting the patient. This book has accurate information, very well-presented with numerous tables and flow charts. But make no mistake, TCM diagnosis is anything but straightforward. Understanding the concepts and remembering the diagnostic reasoning in this book requires a lot of commitment. Definitely an essential text for any serious student of TCM. ## Frequently Bought Together - Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis Study Guide - Zang Fu Pattern Identification Study Guide - The Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula Study Guide --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/3886713-traditional-chinese-medicine-diagnosis-study-guide](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/3886713-traditional-chinese-medicine-diagnosis-study-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
