概念是理论的“细胞”。从概念着手，是构建现代中医基础理论首要且重要的一步。本文在前期“由现象描述向本质阐明的变革”思想下，首次引入“概念转变”，点明其基本含义和作用。为准确应用这一新概念，对概念与其表达对象，概念语词表达形式以及概念解释力等进行详尽分析论证，指出中医概念研究因忽略这些认识而导致的问题及解决途径。总结出国际科学界实现“概念转变”的规律为“聚焦对象，探索未知，提出新识”。提出中医基础理论“概念转变”的定义。依据前期研究结果，概括出实现中基概念转变的目标及标准，并给出例证论证。由此得出结论：中医基础理论的概念通过概念转变，形成现代中基的科学概念；由此引导中医理论与思维及教学变革。

The concept is "cell" of the theory. Starting from the concept, is the first and important step in building the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Based on the early thought of "Changes from phenomenon description to entity elucidation", we firstly introduce "conceptual change" in this paper and point out its basic meaning and role. To accurately apply the new concept, we have analyzed and demonstrated the concept and its expression object, the concept words' expression forms, as well as the concept explanatory power in details, and pointed out the problems because of ignoring these recognition in researching the concept of chinese medicine and its solutions. We have summarized the laws of the international scientific community realizing the conceptual change " focus on the object, explore the unknown, propose new knowledge". and proposed the definition of "conceptual change" of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine. According to preliminary findings we have generalized the goal and standard to achieve the conceptual change of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine and gave examples of proof. As such we have draw an conclusion: the concepts of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine form the scientific concepts of the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine through conceptual change, and thus guiding the theory, teaching and thinking reform of the Chinese medicine.
