Ryoan Imamura and his Iji Keigen (1862) -Public Disclosure of the Prescription of "Mafutsusan" -.
2017
: In 1846, Ryoan Imamura joined the Gassuido school in Osaka, which was a branch of the Shunrinken school in Hirayama, Kishu. At that time the Gassuido school was presided by Nanyo Hanaoka, the son-in-law of Sei- shu Hanaoka. It remains unknown how long Imamura studied surgery at the school. In 1862, Imamura published a book titled Iji Keigen, wherein he disclosed the prescription of "Mafutsusan". Every disciple of the Hanaoka's schools was sternly asked not to leak the secrets of the prescription. In the background of his divulgence, there may have been the circumstances in which he had a deliberate intension to insist on the significance of traditional Kampo medicine, coping with emerging Western medicine.
