My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Precise surgical skills should be considered the most powerful among the three styles: stability, speed, and precision.

Especially for building a reputation, it is an unparalleled tool.

For instance, consider a tumor growing next to the brainstem. No one dares to treat it.

Other hospitals have declared a death sentence for the patient, recommending conservative treatment.

With his precise surgical skills, Wu Baihe removed the tumor. The patient survived and was able to recover.

Tuya Hospital can then heavily promote how their chief neurosurgery physician, Wu Baihe, with his elite surgical team, successfully treated a high-risk patient with a tumor in a critical zone of life.

The critical zone of life is the central hub of human life, recognized in the medical community as an untouchable area where having a tumor is almost the same as being sentenced to death...

With such promotion, how can the average bystander resist?

It's only natural to assume that the neurosurgical skill at Tu Ya is the best in the world. If one has such a disease in the future, it would be right to seek medical advice there because they have the most authoritative doctors.

This is the effect of a famous doctor.

Just Wu Baihe alone can attract countless patients seeking his reputation.

Even other hospitals' doctors, when encountering patients in need of surgery near the brainstem and unable to handle it themselves, will advise the patient and their family, if they are sensible enough, to seek treatment at Tu Ya Neurosurgery.

"To talk about the drawbacks of precision. Personally, I believe that as humans, we all have emotions and desires, and hence, are bound to be fixated, which means those who follow the path of precise surgical style will never reach the pinnacle in their lifetime. Besides, humans can't even control their own arms to an extreme precision, let alone holding a scalpel or other instruments."

The human body is extremely complex, and achieving 95% of what the cerebellum commands in terms of movement is already quite impressive.

In reality, if the motion command is unfamiliar, the execution rate might only be around 60%.

Take the simplest example, when we watch someone else ride a bicycle, they are just sitting on the seat, pedaling hard, and holding the handlebars to steer.

When we try it, we follow the cerebellum's command.

Resulting in falling and knocking out two teeth, with a bruised nose and a swollen face as we get up from the ground.

Damn it, other people ride just like this! Why do I fall as soon as I get on?

This is just an example of the body not fully executing the cerebellum's commands.

The brain only gathers the visual of someone cycling, analyzes it, and then passes the command to the cerebellum. Finally, the cerebellum issues the movement command.

It ignores the sense of balance.

only after countless falls do we finally grasp the balance needed to ride a bicycle smoothly.

The same principle applies when performing surgery with a scalpel or other instruments.

It can be affected by mood, thoughts, balance, sense of force, among other factors, resulting in failing to achieve the precision desired by the brain.

After Zhou Can heard about the three most common surgical styles, he couldn't help but immerse himself in deep thought.

Each surgical style has its pros and cons.

It's difficult for him to decide which style is better.

"Teacher, can these surgical styles be chosen simultaneously?"

Zhou Can asked.

"It's probably not possible, at least countless predecessors have tried without success. At the beginning of training, the conflict between the three styles is not very noticeable. The higher the level, the more severe the conflict becomes. In the end, they are like water and fire, incompatible, and you have to abandon the other styles, retaining only one."

Dr. Xu is experienced, and his advice naturally has its reason.

You can't have the best of both worlds.

"Of course, you are still just building the foundation, and you can practice the basics of all three styles. Although they can't be merged, they do have interconnections. For instance, my fast surgery style, both precision and stability are needed. The exercises like Director Hu's hair-pinching, arm-raising can also be practiced. They are very beneficial."

Dr. Xu didn't rush Zhou Can to pick a style.

Instead, he let him practice the basics of all three styles.

"What about the basics of fast surgery? How is it practiced?"

Zhou Can humbly asked.

It seems that after work, besides practicing surgeries on lab rats, he has much more to do.

These advanced surgical practice methods can only be learned in a leading hospital like Tu Ya.

Jin Mingxi's ears perked up.

He wouldn't miss a single word said by Dr. Xu.

This learning opportunity, he also owes to Zhou Can.

Normally, Dr. Xu would likely not teach others.

"The basics of fast surgery involve multiple practice steps. To start, you can practice cutting carrots. There are just two requirements: the faster, the better, and ensure every slice of carrot has consistent thickness. This essentially trains the basics of both fast and precise styles."

It turns out carrots aren't only used for practicing suturing and carving, but also this.

Listening to this, Zhou Can felt somewhat like he was training to be a chef, starting with knife skills.

"When you practice cutting carrots, it's best to practice with both hands. Many surgeries are better performed with the left hand. Plus, the flexibility of the left hand should be greater than the right."

Dr. Xu added another requirement.

Regarding the left hand being more flexible than the right, Zhou Can did know something about that.

This secret is only known to those in the medical field.

Many people think that not only is the right hand stronger than the left, but it is also more agile, which actually is a misconception.
