Palpatory Examination

Palpatory Examination is a clinical assessment method that involves the systematic application of manual touch to evaluate anatomical structures, physiological conditions, or pathological changes through tactile perception, distinguishing it from other diagnostic techniques by its reliance on the examiner’s somatosensory feedback to interpret tissue texture, mobility, tenderness, and spatial relationships.
