Objective：Toobservetheeffectofelectro-scalpacupunctureonglucosemetabolismofcerebralregionsinvolvingmentalactivityinhealthypeople.Methods:Atotalof6casesofvolunteerhealthysubjects(3malesand3females)ranginginagefrom22to36yearsweresubjectedtothisstudy.Changesofcerebralglucosemetabolismbeforeandafterelectro-scalpacupuncturewereobservedbyusingpositronemissiontomography(PET)andsemi-quantifyinganalysismethod.Electro-scalpacupuncturestimulation(50Hz,2rnA)ofMiddleLineofVertex(Dingzhongxian,顶中线,MS5),MiddleLineofForehead(Ezhongxian,额中线,MS1)andbilateralLateralLine1ofForehead(Epangyixian,额旁一线,MS2)wasadministeredfor30minutes.Thencerebralregionsofinterest(ROIs)werechosenandtheiraverageglucosemetabolismlevels(radioactivityof18fluorinedeoxyglucose)wereanalyzed.Results：Afteradministrationofelectro-scalpacupuncture,theglucosemetabolismlevelsinbilateralfrontallobesandbilateralcaudatenuclei,leftcingulategyrusandrightcerebellumincreasedsignificantlyincomparisonwiththoseofprestimulation(P<0.05).Conclusion:Electro-scalpacupunctureofMS1,MS2andMS5canincreasetheglucosemetabolismofcertaincerebralregionsinvolvingmentalactivityinhealthysubjects.
