NCCAOM Point Location Practice Exam

In acupuncture point location, the inguinal region has several Spleen-channel points defined by their distance from Ren-2 and their relation to the femoral artery. The description—3.5 cun lateral to Ren-2 and on the lateral side of the femoral artery—places the point in the groin area along the Spleen channel, specifically in the femoral triangle. That exact spot corresponds to SP11, which is located there along the channel. This makes it the best match for the described location. The other options lie in different regions (for example, some are lower on the leg or in other lower-abdominal locations) and do not fit this groin description.
