ELECTRODE APPARATUS FOR MEASURING IMPEDANCE WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY, AND APPARATUS USING SAME FOR MEASURING IMPEDANCE WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY AND PERFORMING TREATMENT
The present invention relates to an electrode apparatus for measuring impedance within the human body, and to an apparatus using same for measuring impedance within the human body and performing treatment, which can automatically determine the precise location of a meridian within the human body, form a three-dimensional image of the location of the determined meridian, and enable acupuncture to be performed precisely at the position of the determined meridian. The electrode apparatus for measuring impedance within the human body comprises: a cylindrical housing member having a guide rod built into an open side thereof a cylindrical electrode member to be pressed against the skin of the human body, and moved back and forth through the open side by means of the guide rod of the housing member and a resilient member interposed between the cylindrical electrode member and the cylindrical housing member to resiliently move the cylindrical electrode member back and forth to/from the guide rod.
