Graphs

Graph Types:

AcuGraph provides complete interpretation and deep insight with 9 important graph types. All graphs can be shown at full-screen resolution for unparalleled clarity and ease of use.

To view these graphs and descriptions, click on the colored titles across the top of this frame:

• Baseline
• Yin & Yang
• By Element
• 5-Element
• Energy Cycle
• Horary
• Ratios
• P.I.E.
• Information

Baseline Graph:
This is the traditional Ryodoraku-style bar graph with the hand meridians on the left and the foot meridians on the right. Color coding identifies excessive, deficient and split (left-right imbalanced) meridians, and the normal range is shown with upper and lower limits.

Yin vs. Yang Graph:
This bar graph places all the yin meridians on the left and the yang meridians on the right. Yin and yang averages are calculated for instant comparison and detection of yin/yang imbalances in the patient.

By Element Graph:
This bar graph puts the meridians in their element pairs, with element averages calculated for easy 5-elements analysis.

5-Elements Chart:
This traditional 5-elements illustration gives the status of each meridian (excessive, deficient, split, normal) and the element averages. This graph is especially useful for evaluating Sheng and Ko influences on the meridian balance.

Energy Cycle Graph:
This bar graph puts the meridians in their energy-cycle order to rapidly evaluate energetic changes throughout the day.

Horary Chart:
This traditional horary wheel shows the meridians in their time periods, with graph shading to demonstrate meridian energetics. The more a segment is shaded, the higher the relative chi balance is in that meridian. This graph is extraordinarily useful for diagnosing time-of-day related problems.

Ratios Graph:
This graph calculates all the relevant statistical ratios in your patient’s exam, and presents them in a clear, easily-understood format. Ratios include Overall energy level, yin/yang balance, upper/lower balance, left/right balance, and energy stability.

Personal Integrated Energetics (P.I.E.) Graph:
AcuGraph Personal Integrated Energetics (P.I.E.) graph shows all the meridians in a simplified, patient friendly format with shading to quickly identify imbalances. Healthy meridians are green and shaded all the way to the edge of the circle. Less-healthy meridians are not shaded as far out to the edge. The P.I.E. score calculates a 0-100 score for each graph so your patient instantly knows how they're doing. Just like grades in school, everyone understands that 92 is better than 78.

Information:
The information screen gives complete interpretation of your patient’s results with functions, imbalances, potential symptoms, emotional connections and 5-elements analysis.

Graph Accuracy:
AcuGraph lets you specify the calculations used to select meridian imbalances, and intelligently adjusts for graph proportions and statistical outliers. Result: More accurate exam findings and treatment recommendations.

Graph Comparison:
Comparing a current graph to a previous one is the best way to show your patient is improving. AcuGraph gives you the ability to compare 2 or 3 graphs at a time to track results. This comparison places the graphs vertically top and bottom with all meridians aligned for instant visual comparison and no confusing searching.

You can also use the “Previous” and “Next” buttons to quickly look through your patient’s exam history.
