The book is divided into twelve parts: electrodiagnosis, endoscopic diagnosis, ultrasonic diagnosis, magnetic diagnosis, X-ray diagnosis, nuclear medicine diagnosis, etiological diagnosis, pathological diagnosis, immunological diagnosis, biochemical tests, functional tests and diagnostic procedures, and genetic diagnosis. Each part is further classified by organ/system, invasive/non-invasive, and morphological/functional.

The normal/abnormal ranges, unless otherwise specified, are based on the current standards of Kunming Medical Hospital. Each examination is concisely and as accurately as possible described from four aspects: principles, methods, normal/abnormal values, and clinical significance. At the end of the book, there are commonly used diagnostic data and formulas, an index of English abbreviations, and references. The content of the book is novel, rich, detailed, and systematic, covering not only the current domestic standards but also the latest international advancements. It meets the daily needs of clinical departments in comprehensive hospitals across China. This book is an important reference tool for clinical physicians and can also be used by faculty and students of medical schools and other prevention, health care, and health management personnel.
