De nombreux clichés d’imagerie moderne (TDM et IRM) et plusieurs schémas d’anatomie de surface permettent d'aborder aisément la sémiologie et la pathologie. Les légendes, conformes à la terminologie anatomique internationale (International Anatomical Terminology), facilitent la compréhension et la mémorisation des termes anatomiques. Des commentaires didactiques viennent parfois éclairer le lecteur sur des points particuliers. Cette 5e édition, entièrement révisée, s’est enrichie d'une dizaine de nouvelles planches d'anatomie et d'imagerie ; la plupart des planches ont été remaniées, ou relégendées.
