『Ojangyukbudo五臟六腑圖』 cited in Euibangyuchwi醫方類聚』 : A Study in Terms of Medical History Science

The 『Ojangyukbudo五臟六腑圖』, cited in 「Ojangmun五藏門」 of 『Euibangyuchwi醫方類聚』, was written by Ho Eum胡愔, a woman Taoist master who lived in Dang Dynasty. She put stress on the medical theory of the five viscera and the six entrails to overcome the side effects of Oedansul[alchemy for immortality] which prevailed during the period of Dang, and established a medical system which was based on six viscera and entrails and combined with Taoist theories. The major features of 『Ojangyukbudo五臟六腑圖』 can be summarized in the six-part medical system, the diagrams which describe the principles of viscera and entrails in detail, and the methods of Suyang[修養法:mental training] , Tonap[吐納法:respiration] and Doin[導引法:physical training] for regulating the functions of viscera and entrails and curing diseases. The 『Dongeuibogam東醫寶鑑』, a medical book from Joseon Dynasty, accepted the methods of Suyang and Doin, and the 『Yorayak要略』, a transcript from Joseon’s later period, accepted the Taoist medicine based on six viscera and entrails, combined it with the contents of 『Dongeuibogam東醫寶鑑』, thus composing a unique medical system. Especially, the Yorayak要略』 is a literature important for the study of Joseon’s Taoist medicine.
