Doctors must be adept at summarizing cases, as medicine itself is a science of experience. Last night’s special case involving Mr. Guo could certainly be written up as a medical article and submitted to a medical journal.

It seemed as if Xie Wanying had “gambled” and won, but the senior doctors knew she definitely wasn’t gambling. There must be some summarizable treatment experience involved. Medicine is not a gamble; it is a science. There must be facts that can be demonstrated and validated.

“The key point she mentioned was that the symptom of upper gastrointestinal bleeding reported by the patient didn’t actually exist. Patient self-reporting can indeed sometimes mislead our judgment. After all, many patients misdescribe their stool conditions,” He Guangyou analyzed carefully.

Qiu Ruiyun, who was about to leave, couldn’t help but stop at the door. Listening to a discussion among senior doctors on this special case was a great learning opportunity. Listening to their words, she thought: Hey, so Xie Wanying, this female medical student, didn’t just save the patient by luck?

Tao Zhijie had yet to speak. Seeing him stay silent, He Guangyou continued along this line of thought: “Last night, when making the diagnosis, all the lab evidence wasn’t sufficient to fully support her argument. In such a situation, if it were an experienced senior doctor, he could rely on past treatment experience to form a kind of experiential intuition to support his judgment of the patient’s condition. She wasn’t that; she was just an intern, and shouldn’t have much clinical experience usually. The only conclusion would be, perhaps like the neurosurgical people said about her thinking, that her brain is like a supercomputer, with an exceptional ability to synthesize and judge data.”

The room suddenly became very quiet.

Turning his gaze, a stern look from Tao Zhijie fell upon He Guangyou, who had spoken: “Do you think the evaluation by the neurosurgical people about her is correct?”

Faced with his stare, He Guangyou felt uneasy and explained: “No, Teacher Tao, I was just thinking, given the current situation, that seems to be the only possibility left.”

Who wouldn’t want their brain to become a supercomputer? Doctors do, too. Whether for treating patients or conducting medical research, how to sift through clinical data to separate useful from useless information is one of the biggest challenges doctors face. Last night, to put it bluntly, Xie Wanying correctly sifted through the valid and invalid data.

An ordinary computer definitely doesn’t have that ability; doctors must filter and enter data into the database themselves. Only the supercomputer of a doctor’s dreams could achieve that.

Does her brain really possess the supercomputing capabilities that the neurosurgical experts claim?

“If that’s true,” Tao Zhijie suddenly flashed a smile again, his eyes and brows completely relaxing, looking more like a jovial Buddha, “I’m even more looking forward to her joining our department soon.”

Looking at his sparkling, bright-eyed enthusiasm, He Guangyou and Qiu Ruiyun thought to themselves: When Xie Wanying really comes here, will she be completely understood by this man? They say he understands medical talent better than the neurosurgeons and is the best at mentoring such medical students.

“Eat.” In his good mood, Tao Zhijie picked up some noodles, then asked another question, “Who did you hear that from? Which neurosurgeon evaluated her like that?”

“I guess it wasn’t Dr. Cao,” He Guangyou answered.

“How do you know it wasn’t him?” Tao Zhijie blinked in feigned surprise, but his eyes twinkled with mirth.

Interesting, everyone knows that Junior Cao is a star in neurosurgery. Cao Yong would surely not miss the chance to analyze such an interesting brain phenomenon.
