Abstract
Literature,achievements and other materials on acupuncture-moxibustion standardization research in recent years were collected and summarized domestically and overseas. The process of acupuncture-moxibustion standardization in China was reviewed through two phases. Also,we compared domestic acupuncture-moxibustion standardization study with the foreign one. It is considered that its domestic development is sound but challenged by world competition in its internationalization. Going forward,acupuncture-moxibustion standardization system is needed to be completed and become international. Contemporary techniques should be used including big data,artificial intelligence,internet of things,and cloud computing,etc., and its application engineering research will be improved so as to drive Chinese medicine modernization.
