A Great Doctor's Bearing

Meeting room.

"Dr. Bailey will send you Katie's medical records. Time is running out, everyone."

Dr. Shepherd gestured for the Nazi to place twenty copies of the medical records on the table for everyone to take. "If you want to save Katie's life, you'd better hurry."

He left after saying that.

Everyone immediately stepped forward, each taking a medical record.

Adam was quick and got it first, then started reading it rapidly.

As Dr. Shepherd said, if this surgery were to proceed, it would be a high-level procedure, even more advanced than the heart bypass surgery Leonard was preparing to perform on Adam.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, extremely rare.

"Meredith, let's work together."

Cristina, the most ambitious of them all, pulled Meredith aside and whispered, "You're Katie's attending physician, you've been taking care of her from the beginning, so you must know more details. Let's work together to find the answer first, and our chances of having the surgery are each 50%..."

"I can cooperate with you, but I don't want to have the surgery."

Meredith looked disgusted. "You do it."

"Are you kidding me?"

Cristina was surprised, delighted, and somewhat incredulous.

This level of surgery is something that not only interns but also residents would covet, which is why Dr. Shepherd used it as both a temptation and motivation, encouraging the exhausted interns to rack their brains and put their minds to work.

Meredith is also a surgeon. How could he just give up such a rare opportunity?

"I don't want to have surgery with Shepherd."

Meredith said disdainfully.

"What happened to Shepherd?"

Cristina immediately sensed something was wrong with the two and looked at Meredith with a strange gaze.

"We've found the answer. You'll perform the surgery, are you in?"

Meredith said irritably.

"Make a deal."

Cristina was overjoyed and pulled Meredith out, saying, "Let's go to the library now."

How could one possibly solve such a difficult case without consulting a book?

Adam closed the medical record and walked outside.

Cristina glanced at Adam, then grabbed Meredith and started running.

Among the 20 interns, she originally thought she was the best.

But when he faced Adam, that confidence vanished immediately.

Now, she must catch up.

This once-in-a-lifetime advanced surgery was a crucial turning point.

She has already gained the upper hand.

Cristina stopped at the corner, turned around abruptly, and saw Adam standing in front of Dr. Shepherd, smiling as he said, "Dr. Shepherd, I have an idea."

"Come on, you must be joking with me."

Cristina didn't believe Adam could find the answer so quickly, but a sense of foreboding rose in her heart. Her heels were firmly planted on the ground as she watched Adam and Dr. Shepherd's conversation with worry.

Tell me about it.

Dr. Shepherd looked at him strangely.

He really didn't expect that someone would come and give him an answer so soon after he had just assigned the task.

If it's that easy, then what is he?

"Based on the medical records, we can rule out hypoxia, kidney failure, and acidosis. The CT Scan is normal, which basically rules out tumors."

Adam said calmly, "The white blood cell count is normal, there is no fever, and the spinal cord fluid aspiration is normal, so infection can be basically ruled out."

"I know all of that."

Dr. Shepherd interrupted, "Speak your mind."

"I think it could be an aneurysm."

Adam said.

"The CT Scan showed no bleeding, the patient had no headache, neck pain, was not poisoned, was not pregnant, and had not suffered any external injuries."

Dr. Shepherd shook his head and said, "So medically, it cannot be proven that she has an aneurysm."

"But she likes to do gymnastics, and her medical record says she has fallen and sprained her ankle before."

Adam explained, "Falling can cause an aneurysm to rupture."

"Yes, but the odds are one in a million, and that's theoretical."

Dr. Shepherd countered.

Is a one in a million chance really that small?

Adam laughed, "Smaller than zero in a million? We're currently struggling precisely because we can't find the cause of her illness. If all the tests come back normal, then even the smallest probability is still possible. What harm is there in doing another scan to confirm?"

Various examinations in hospitals require the support of medical theory.

Without evidence, you cannot arbitrarily conduct various tests.

Because every checkup will eventually be included in the bill.

This is also to prevent hospitals from arbitrarily arranging examinations and making large sums of money.

Moreover, if the cause of the disease cannot be found and there is no clear direction for examination, even if the examination is done, it may be overlooked because the symptoms are too subtle and not obvious, and thus have no effect.

A minor rupture of an aneurysm falls into this category.

Dr. Shepherd stared blankly at Adam, somewhat dazed.

In Adam, he seemed to see the shadow of someone.

MRI Room.

"It's a ghost."

Dr. Shepherd brought Adam here and performed a scan. When he saw the tiny crack on the screen, he exclaimed, "Arachnoid hemorrhage, very small, but it's there. She's bleeding inside her brain."

At this point, a smile appeared on his face.

As a top Neurosurgery, he is not afraid of intracranial hemorrhage; it's just a surgical problem. What he fears is not being able to find the cause.

"Adam, how did you come up with this?"

Dr. Shepherd looked at Adam with a complicated expression.

"List all possible causes and eliminate them one by one."

Adam laughed.

When he received the medical record, a 3D model of the human body automatically appeared in his mind. He used the knowledge points from a large number of medical books he had read to continuously simulate, compare, and eliminate possibilities, quickly arriving at the most likely result.

"Well done."

Dr. Shepherd nodded.

Adam's nonchalant explanation belies the talent and effort required, something a top doctor could hardly be unaware of.

"Thanks."

Adam reminded him, "What about assisting with the surgery?"

"It's naturally yours."

Dr. Shepherd closed the medical record and smiled, "I'll go inform Katie's parents now. The surgery is this afternoon. See you in the Operating Room."

See you in the Operating Room.

Adam was overjoyed.

Shepherd took a few steps, then turned back. "You remind me of someone."

"Who?"

Adam asked curiously.

Shepherd smiled, but left without giving an answer.

When he told Katie's parents he was at a loss, Katie threatened to find another doctor, but that doctor was not easy to book.

In terms of both fame and status, that doctor far surpassed him, and was especially skilled at solving difficult and complicated diseases.

Such a brilliant and talented doctor doesn't feel ashamed at all when patients are transferred to other hospitals.

These days, most patients end up in his care, but it's an intern who's actually solving the problems, which makes him feel conflicted.

I don't know whether to be glad I have such an intern under my command, or to wish the patient had been transferred to a top-tier hospital.

He had never seen such a capable intern before.

Perhaps that great doctor had this kind of demeanor when he was young.
