- the four step process (define and align; listen and localize; palpate and re-create; alleviate and investigate)
- the accurate orientation of the ‘triangle system’ which aligns the questioning and subsequent examination to focus on surrounding structures that may be injured, not just the most obvious one
- diagnostic reference tables
- the ‘anatomical clock’ concept
- detailed anatomical descriptions

Clinical Sports Anatomy emphasizes the need for accurate and comprehensive understanding of human anatomy, which is, in essence, the pathological basis for all injury in sport.
