During mass prophylactic investigations, detection of various disorders, especially visceral ones, nowadays requires time-consuming and expensive investigations using scarce equipment and reagents; besides, numerous highly qualified personnel are needed. Therefore, the development of informative, technically simple and quickly achievable methods of express diagnostics is one of the important tasks of practical medicine. For these purposes auricular diagnostics has been recently applied abroad and in our country. It is believed, that functional and organic lesions of different internal organs and systems are accompanied by changes in corresponding auricular zones and points.
