• A. LI-16
• B. LI-18
• C. LI-17
• D. LI-15

Answer: (A)

This item tests exact point location on the Large Intestine channel in the shoulder region. The described site—the depression on the upper aspect of the shoulder, medial to the acromion and between the lateral end of the clavicle and the scapular spine—matches LI-16. This spot sits in a shallow hollow where the shoulder girdle bones come together and is a key LI point used for shoulder issues. The other listed points are located at different landmarks around the face or other parts of the shoulder and do not lie in this specific depression, so they don’t fit the description as well.
