MERIDIAN ANATOMY OF GALL BLADDER:
GREATER VESSEL:
The GalL Bladder meridian starts at the outer canthus of the eye. It ascends the forehead and curves downwards to the region behind the ear (at Fengchi GB 20). From here it runs down the neck to the supraclavicular fossa.
A branch from the region behind the ear enters the ear. Another branch from the outer canthus meets the Triple Burner channel in the infR orbital region. It then descends to the neck and the supraclavicular fossa where it meets the main branch. From here, it descends to the chest and passing through the diaphragm, it enters the liver and galL bladder. It then runs down the hypochonriac region and the later al side of the abdomen to reach the point Huantiao GB 30.
The main portion of the channel from the supraclivcualar fos goes to the axilla and the lateral side fo the chest to the ribs and hip where tit meets the previous branch. It then descends along the lateral aspect of the thigh and leg to end at the lateral side of the 4th toe.
From Zulinqi GB 41, a branch goes to Dan LR 1.
