Solution Steps
Step 1: Analyze the first image (top left)
The doctor is using their hands to feel the patient's abdomen. This corresponds to palpation.
Step 2: Analyze the second image (top right)
The doctor is using a stethoscope on the patient's back. This corresponds to auscultation.
Step 3: Analyze the third image (bottom left)
The doctor is visually observing the patient's face and neck, and also using their hands to feel the patient's neck. Primarily, this represents inspection, although there is a palpation component. We will choose the primary technique shown.
