OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlativity of meridians and acupoints with fascial system. METHODS: The lines and beads-like structures seen by fasciaology and scanning connective tissue, were combined with traditional meridians and collaterals, and acupoints to investigate channels, collaterals and acupoints. RESULTS: The high correlativity of the meridians and acupoints with the fascial system was found. CONCLUSION: The concept, functions, clinical application and mechanisms of meridians and acupoints can be preliminarily explained.
