What is the concept of modernization of Chinese medicine?

It is a pseudo-concept, which is misleading and deceitful.

The basic theory of Chinese medicine is metaphysics (a branch of ancient Chinese philosophy), if Chinese medicine is modernized, we have to replace metaphysics with science, then the theory of Chinese medicine collapsed, and there is no Chinese medicine. Just as Western medicine has been modernized, Westerners abandoned the philosophical basis of ancient Western medicine, developed into scientific medicine, traditional Western medicine no longer exists. And then there's Egyptian medicine, Arab medicine, Indian medicine, and so on traditional medicine are.

An analogy, Chinese medicine, Western medicine, Egyptian medicine, Arab medicine, Indian medicine and other traditional medicine is like the theory of creation, modern medicine is like the theory of evolution, imagine, the theory of creation can be modernized for the theory of evolution? Impossible, two different and contradictory, hostile systems can not be combined, nor integration.

The so-called modernization of Chinese medicine is two-fold. On the one hand, it is a massive reference to the diagnostic and therapeutic techniques and medicines of modern medicine (most of which are chemical ingredients stolen from traditional Chinese medicine); on the other hand, it is the production of herbs into chemical pharmaceuticals, such as proprietary medicines, which are still traditional Chinese medicines in reality. Just to fool people, many Chinese medicine practitioners use laboratory tests, ultrasound, CT, ECG, etc., and then pretend to take the pulse and look at the tongue to make people think that the Chinese medicine practitioners have found out the disease by their own skills.

Without the use of modern medicine to diagnose and treat diseases, only with those means of diagnosis and treatment of Chinese medicine, I am afraid that few people will believe in Chinese medicine, the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, many people already do not believe in Chinese medicine is an example.
