After the founding of New China, President Mao Zedong put forward the instruction of integrating traditional Chinese and western medicine. On the surface, this is still a medical development under politics. The reason behind this is that under the constant impact of modern medicine, Chinese medicine has not really lost its market. The therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine on many diseases has become the therapeutic basis of its existence. The complete system of TCM conforms to the thinking mode of China people, which has become the cultural basis of TCM, or because of the existence of TCM culture. The combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine is mainly manifested in the independent application of traditional Chinese and western medicine technology in clinic.

2. Modernization of traditional Chinese medicine

Since the reform and opening up, many scientific and technological workers in the field of traditional Chinese medicine are trying to understand traditional Chinese medicine with modern science. Academicians from China Academy of Engineering and China Academy of Sciences have made long-term efforts. Influenced a generation of literati. For example, at the end of last century and the beginning of this century, 1996, the academic circles in Tsinghua had a new comprehensive and creative understanding and interpretation of the essence of qi, the essence of meridians, Yin and Yang, the five elements, Tibetan images and the philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, Deng Yu and others found that gas is a flowing mixed unity of' information-energy-matter'; Anatomical structure of meridians with fractal dimension; Mathematical yin and yang; TCM fractal set: fractal Yin-Yang set-Yin-Yang set fractal dimension, five-line fractal set-five-line fractal dimension; Five systems of fractal Tibetan image-heart system, liver system, spleen system, lung system and kidney system; Three philosophies of traditional Chinese medicine-the new third philosophy: similarity-fractal theory, etc. In addition, based on nearly 30 years' research on objectification of TCM, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine has successfully developed a four-diagnostic instrument for TCM, which integrates a large number of modern scientific and technological achievements and the clinical experience of many TCM experts, and integrates tongue diagnosis, face-to-face diagnosis, pulse diagnosis and inquiry, and can provide objective collection and analysis of TCM diagnostic information, qualitative and quantitative health status identification, health status intervention and adjustment suggestions, curative effect evaluation, chronic disease management and so on. Among them, health intervention.
