摘要
The term“zang xiang”first appeared in the classical text，Huangdi Neijing（Canon of Internal Medicine）.Literally“zang refers to organs inside the body；xiang means image orphenomenon.Therefore，zang xiang refers tO the internal organsand the external manifestations of their physiological and patho-logical states.”[1]Nevertheless，the“zang”in Traditional ChineseMedicine does not exactly represent the anatomical organs.butsystematic groupings of physiological phenomena.
The theory of zang xiang mainly concerns two major typesof organs：the zang-organs and the fu-organs.“That is why it isalso known as‘the theory of zang-fu organs.’Zang-fu is a col-lective term for internal organs；there are five zang-organs andsix fu-organs.The common function of the five zang-organs is tostore essence，iing，which is refined food nutrient responsible formaintenance of lire activities.”[1]The common function of thesix fu-organs is“transmission and transformation；in charge ofdigestion.assimilation and elimination.[2]
“Body functions are attributed mainly to the five zang-organs——usually translated as viscera or solid organs：theHeart，Lung，Liver，Spleen，and Kidney.Understanding of theirfunctions was derived from external observation rather thananatomical study and bears little relation to standard Westernunderstanding.
