Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Watching his series of seemingly inexplicable actions, Feng Yicong was full of questions: It's not a teacher giving the lecture, it's just Student Xie giving the lecture, and you're preparing to take notes?

Besides being known as the gentle guy in class, Student Pan seems to be a bit of an odd person. After opening the notebook, he didn't take notes but instead started sketching with a ballpoint pen on the blank pages, drawing rough drafts based on the patient's CT report.

If he continues to sketch messily, in just a few strokes, the full view of an anatomical diagram begins to emerge.

Feng Yicong recalled what classmates said, that Student Pan's drawing skills matched his personality, beautifully sketching things like an art student, having once privately drawn portraits of each classmate.

Sketching can greatly help doctors summarize key points of their thought process. For surgeons, occasionally sketching is much more effective than thinking chaotically about a bunch of things.

But no matter how well this person draws, there is a gap compared to the female top student in the class. This fact is clear to Feng Yicong and the other students, including Pan Shihua himself.

Xie Wanying, the student, is not good at drawing, she is good at thinking. She has said before that she can't draw people at all.

Many surgeons can draw, but it's particularly challenging to develop her unique three-dimensional fluid thinking.

"Speak, speak," Director Yang urged her to talk.

"CT can show the activity of the patient's intestines and other abdominal organs. We can compare several of the patient's CT scans to infer the general movement patterns of the abdominal organs," Xie Wanying said.

Alright, they guessed accurately. Once she said this, everyone's brain became tangled. It's just a few CT images. Looking left and right, saying that the intestines move to the left and right—this is the inherent physiological activity of intestinal peristalsis. Not to mention, according to her, further calculations would infer how these organ activities influence the location of inflammation to form pus. Only when these results are calculated correctly, can the drainage tube be placed in the precise position. If a precise aspiration could be achieved, this difficulty would be resolved.

Pan Shihua's previously god-like pen seemed to go 'clang clang clang,' stuck halfway on the paper.

Apart from her, it seems no one else thought of it. Director Yang's eyes bent into a smile, confirming this with everyone's expressions present at the scene. Thus, he said to the other doctors, "The next step, if this patient needs to readjust the drainage tube position, let Dr. Xie assist on-site."

"Got it," Doctor Jiang replied gleefully.

"Doctor Yu, what do you think? How did she answer?" Director Yang further inquired with Yu Xuexian, the main instructor.

If she can do what she said, the patient can initially be transferred to surgery to resolve the pus, speeding up the process with a two-pronged approach. It indicates that what she thought of and could accomplish exceeded his expectations. Otherwise, he would've initially sent the patient to surgery.

The doctors would never delay a patient's condition for the sake of competition. On the contrary, his dispute with Doctor Jiang was just each trying to get the patient better quickly.

Yu Xuexian nodded, "Transfer to surgery to clear the pus first."

Senior Brother Yu agreed with her strategy. The lesson Xie Wanying learned from this was that to convince colleagues, one must present specific and feasible measures; vague discussions won't win anyone's respect. Especially for physicians, the surgical tasks that a surgeon can't accomplish are basically considered ineffective in their eyes. As for other treatment methods, frankly, they believe they're better at it than you. That's why Teacher Jiang's previous words failed to make Senior Brother Yu concede.
