Zhu Huicang followed after him, cleaning up the meal tray and complaining, “Orthopedics never recruits female doctors, so why come here and ask her about that?”

The preference for physical strength in orthopedics and not hiring female doctors was understandable, but the sudden interest in a female intern was puzzling.

“Spinal neurosurgery, bone tumors, arthroscopy, they all need to go through the minimally invasive route,” Cao Yong said with a steady voice.

It turned out that the Herculean orthopedics was also beginning to charge toward the small and exquisite world of minimally invasive surgery. The field of surgery was entering an era where minimally invasive techniques were blossoming.

The biggest difference between minimally invasive and traditional surgery is the small incision, relying on various types of assisting instruments to perform surgery inside the patient’s body. The small incision causes constraints on the surgeon’s field of view; therefore, the surgeon needs to have a more solid foundation in anatomy and a rich imagination, combining comprehensive medical knowledge and learning to supplement the surgical view in their mind.

This mental visualization is highly demanding; the more accurate the prediction, the better. Forming a reliable surgical path map helps to smoothly complete minimally invasive surgery.

If one cannot mentally visualize it, they might have to switch to traditional surgery with a larger incision mid-procedure, which could be problematic.

The issue is that the future trend of all of surgery is bound to be minimally invasive. Surgeons skilled in minimally invasive procedures will be sought after by patients, while those who can only perform traditional surgeries might be left behind by the times.

For doctors accustomed to traditional surgeries, this trend can be quite frustrating. Not all doctors can quickly adapt and possess such visualization skills; this raises the bar for most surgeons.

Fortunately, doctors work in teams. As long as there is one person with such skills on the team, the collective professional ability can be quickly enhanced. Without innate visualization skills, persistent practice can make up for the deficiency through experience, similar to traditional surgery. However, in the face of difficulties, such a person is still needed. In the world of surgery, such a person can usually be hailed as naturally talented.

“No wonder,” Zhu Huicang recalled seeing Chang Jiawei often coming to look for Fu Xinheng, “He always talked about her in Fu Xinheng’s office. I thought Master Playboy might be trying to pick up a girl, but it didn’t quite fit. Their Bone III department specializes in spinal surgery. Those who came to inquire today seemed to be involved in arthroscopy.”

These people were not fools; they were sharp-witted and quickly grasped key elements upon hearing rumors. The folks in proctology might be thick-skinned, but they caught the information in Tan Kelin’s surgery and spread the word. That said, this was both a good thing and perhaps not such a good thing for Xie Wanying.

It’s like how his old classmate, Cao Yong, was early on the focus of attention from all the seniors, burdened with greater expectations. Higher expectations definitely meant stricter demands. Any minor error could be scrutinized by a bunch of people as if through a magnifying glass.

The image of the first time he saw her once again crossed Cao Yong’s mind: she stood in the night like a glimmer of light, seemingly capable of penetrating into a bright future. It was foreseeable for her to be the center of attention.

Walking along, Zhu Huicang realized his old classmate was not heading back to his department and asked, “Who were you just in contact with?”

“Director Yang. Tan Kelin had the surgery recorded today and sent to the medical education department for record and review,” Cao Yong answered.

According to hospital regulations, all surgical videos recorded in the hospital’s operating rooms must first be submitted to the medical education department for review and backup.

Zhu Huicang listened and rubbed his hands eagerly, his old classmate was well-informed.
