Los hallazgos esperados e inesperados siguen a la descripción de cada técnica, y se presentan en un color distintivo a fin de poderlos reconocer más fácilmente. Numerosas ilustraciones intercaladas en el texto ayudan a comprender las técnicas y los posibles hallazgos. Las variaciones de la exploración pediátrica se destacan en cada uno de los capítulos dedicados a los sistemas corporales.Todos los capítulos incluyen un apartado llamado «Ayudas al diagnóstico diferencial». En los distintos capítulos de esta décima edición, los «Datos objetivos» y los «Datos subjetivos», dentro de este apartado están claramente diferenciados para cada anomalía. Como en ediciones anteriores, capítulos diferenciados aportan una perspectiva general de la exploración completa en todos los adultos; los lactantes, los niños y los adolescentes; las poblaciones especiales y los adultos mayores; los pacientes transgénero y de género no binario, y las personas que practican deporte.
