『Aheuichaulyo』-Restoration of the lost medical book in ancient Korea

고려(高麗) 의서(醫書) 『어의촬요(御醫撮要)』의 복원

"Aheuichaulyo御醫撮要" was known to be published by Choi Jong-jun崔宗峻 in Korea高麗 Dynasty(A.D.1226), however its original copy is not available at the present. It was thought that Korean folk medicine and the remedies were recorded in this book, and these were recorded in "Euibangyoochui醫方類聚" published in Chosun朝鮮 dynasty(1445). "Euibangyoochui" is called a treasure-house of the knowledge of traditional oriental medicine which contains over 50,000 prescriptions and enormous amount of medical information. The restoration of "Aheuichaulyo" was possible during the process of establishment of data base work of "Euibangyoochui". "Aheuichaulyo" was restored as 132 chapters mainly from the related con tents of "Euibangyoochui" and partially from the contents of "Hyangyakjipsungbang鄕藥集成方" and "Boonmoononyukyihaebang分門瘟疫易解方" for the supplement.
