 ==Governor Vessel Correspondence==
-Governor Vessel is a typical example of the gap model of a channel. It originates in the [[Kidney]], extends down to the perineum through the uterus or prostate gland, and then, one of the main branches ascends through the vertebral column. The point of GV-16 (Fong Fu) gives birth to the branch, which enters the scull. Its main pathway lies through the top of the head and ends at the upper lip.

 What is an anatomical equivalent of the Governor Vessel: spinal chord or vertebral column? We believe that Governor Vessel is a vertebral channel and the point GV-16 (Fong Fu) corresponds to [[Foramen Magnum]] at the occipital bone. Therefore, the branch of Governor Vessel penetrating the skull is the extension of the vertebral channel into the skull through [[Foramen Magnum]]. <ref>[http://www.acutechinternational.com/html/modern_view.html Medical Acupuncture]</ref><ref>Medical Acupuncture, Mikhail Teppone, Romen Avakyan</ref>
