Anatomical left wrist — guan (Liver) — superficial

Middle wrist position · fū palpation

This point represents the superficial palpation level of the anatomical left guan, the middle wrist position associated with the Liver in the selected Mai Jing convention. Its front-view coordinate is a schematic projection of the wrist station, and the slight lateral offset keeps this depth visible beside the middle and deep levels.

Wang Shuhe, Mai Jing (Pulse Classic) (primary_canonical)

Mai Jing, juan 1, the cun-mouth pulse-position discussion (寸口脈), assigns the left guan station to the Liver in the selected convention. Superficial, middle, and deep are palpation depths at this same wrist station, not separate anatomical loci.
