Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s
Chapter 2098: Right Before Her Eyes
"What’s going on?" Some people urgently asked.
They were afraid that Cao Yong might be giving up as well.
"No, that’s not it," Xie Wanying said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chenrong and others standing behind her couldn’t help but perk up their ears.
Xie Wanying was very sure that Senior Cao was not giving up, but the feeling Doctor Song mentioned earlier was not right, suggesting that the PICA aneurysm was not actually an aneurysm.
Not an aneurysm? The cardiology team was astonished, recalling the two-dimensional imaging that clearly showed a vascular bulge.
"They must have felt an abnormal texture," Jin Tianyu pondered aloud.
Senior Jin, after all, was an intervention specialist. Although it was an intervention procedure from a different department, many principles were similar. Unlike traditional surgery, interventional procedures rely on imaging rather than direct visual inspection, making them susceptible to blind spots and illusions. This had been discussed before. In addition to relying on experience and mentally deducing discrepancies, an important criterion for doctors was based on tactile feedback.
Hearing Senior Jin’s words affirming her speculation, Xie Wanying was internally surprised: In the current surgical scene, Doctor Song seemed to lack confidence in his own mental calculations and relied more on Senior Cao’s tactile feedback.
Logically, Doctor Song’s tactile perception was not bad; even if slightly lacking, he could always make up for it with his intellect. In this regard, Xie Wanying had partnered with Doctor Song before and had a deep understanding and could vouch for it.
Why did Doctor Song believe that Senior Cao’s tactile perception was better than his own mental calculations?
Xie Wanying turned around and quietly glanced at Senior Jin and Teacher Lin: Could it be that Teacher Lin and Senior Jin’s inexplicable confidence in Senior Cao stemmed from this?
Lin Chenrong and Jin Tianyu caught the question mark in her eyes, thinking: Oh dear, is Cao Yong finally going to let this slip in front of her?
To say it slipped might not entirely be accurate. Although they couldn’t figure out why Cao Yong hadn’t demonstrated his skills in front of her yet, perhaps he had wanted to but missed the opportunity?
Keep watching, Junior Sister. Jin Tianyu extended a finger and pointed forward.
Honestly, Junior Cao is a good person, and so is Junior Sister Xie. Most senior brothers and sisters quite like the idea of these two being together. Jin Tianyu pondered whether his presence here today made him somewhat like Hero Huang, acting as a matchmaker.
Senior Jin motioned for her to look ahead.
Xie Wanying turned her head back, and an answer seemed to be right in front of her.
In the clinical field, there are many people who are "all talk and no action." The most common group is medical students and young doctors; most are excellent in academics and writing papers but struggle with technical operations. Clinical technical skills truly need to be honed through practice, accumulated over time. Teacher Tan had warned her about this early on.
Her mind, like Doctor Song’s, was not an issue; the tactile perception might lag behind the mind’s speed, which is a common problem among medical students and young doctors. She and Doctor Song were no exceptions; their tactile sense was often constrained.
If there was such a person who was naturally gifted with tactile perception, whose hands inherently came with a calculator, housing an extraordinary brain?
Could such a person exist?
Xie Wanying thought, if such a person did exist, they would surely cause all doctors in the surgical field to be envious to the core. She and Doctor Song would feel the same kind of jealousy. Because this was a goal that seasoned surgeons might not achieve even after a lifetime of practice, it’s something they wouldn’t even dare to imagine.
Being "all talk and no action" is common for humans, but having hands that naturally surpass the eyes is called extraordinary.
