Abstract:
Under the background of the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the postgraduate training of acupuncture professional master's degree is faced with the dual opportunities for updating educational concepts and changing practical models. This paper focuses on the deep integration of AI technology and the postgraduate cultivation of acupuncture professional master's degree, and systematically discusses the educational innovation path in the era of digital intelligence. At the level of curriculum system, taking traditional culture as the foundation and syndrome differentiation and treatment thinking as the main line, an intelligent teaching platform integrating classic research and interdisciplinary knowledge is constructed to consolidate students' foundation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) thinking. At the level of cross-professional clinical ability, relying on big data platform and visualization technology, students can accurately grasp the dominant diseases of acupuncture and the timing of intervention in cross-professional rotation. At the level of clinical operation, with the help of intelligent positioning and virtual training system, the accuracy and safety of operation are improved, and the closed-loop diagnosis and treatment thinking training system is constructed. Through the systematic review of the above innovative models, the aim is to provide an intelligent solution with both traditional heritage and modern vision for the postgraduate training of acupuncture professional master's degree, and to help the sustainable development of high-level acupuncture talents.
