摘要:

中国医学是从公元5世纪通过朝鲜半岛传入日本。自此以后,经历了很多年代,日本人通过孜孜不倦地努力形成了适合自己的医学。17世纪,为了区分从荷兰传来的"兰方"医学,就将当时已成为主流的医学称为"汉方"。虽然1874年公布医事制度以后,一段时期日本汉方从医学、医疗的正面舞台消失了,但后来经过诸多前人的努力,日本汉方医学再一次在现代医学中体现出它的必要性,人们追求并希望形成一个西洋医学和日本汉方医学相融合的新综合医疗体系。

Abstract:

Since the 5th century the traditional Chinese medicine has been brought into Japan. After a long time and constant efforts,Japanese people have formed their own medicine that more suitable for them. In the 17th century they have called their own medicine "Kampo" medicine to distinguish from "Rampo" medicine that was introduced from Netherland. "Japanese medical matters system" was issued in 1874,that did not admit "Kampo" medicine as the ordinary medicine. Therefore,"Kampo" medicine was disappeared from the center stage of the medicine for a while and gradually had declined. Afterwards many medical ancestors worked hard to revive "Kampo" medicine,and people also realized that they need it for today’s medical care. In recent years they require a new medicine system-com-prehensive medical treatment that treat the diseases and injures with a combined Western and "Kampo" medicine.
