Chapter 218: [218] Magnificently heading to the Radiology Department

The theory examinations for the eight-year program class were more difficult than those at other colleges. For students taking the exams early, the paper difficulty was adjusted up one level. Ren Chongda helped her apply to the school, and it was said that they were tasked with selecting the most challenging papers from the question bank for each subject.

Ren Chongda’s idea was simple: the harder the theory examination, the greater the hurdle added for students, allowing for an early assessment of whether the students truly possessed the necessary capabilities.

While waiting for the counselor’s message, Xie Wanying spent her time reviewing lessons and attending classes with her classmates during the day.

They were surprisingly taught Diagnostic Studies, Internal Medicine, Surgery, and Pharmacology, the four most challenging comprehensive subjects, all together for their class, and the textbooks for these subjects were as thick as encyclopedias.

Then, there was another subject that significantly tested the comprehensive abilities of the students: Radiodiagnostic Studies, which mainly involved learning to interpret medical images.

Whether it was X-ray films, CT scans, or MRI scans, these cross-sectional images required a deep understanding of anatomy and strong powers of association. During lectures, if the teacher did not provide examples, the students generally found the material quite abstract.

Of these courses, except for Pharmacology, a clinical apprenticeship was required to better understand them. The apprenticeships for Diagnostic Studies, Internal Medicine, and Surgery overlapped and were combined. For Radiodiagnostic Studies, needless to say, they were certainly arranged to go directly to the Radiology department for observation.

The instructors for the apprenticeships were generally different from the classroom teachers. At Top-tier Medical College, the classroom teachers were professionals, and the chance of needing clinical teachers to supplement classroom instruction was extremely rare. Of course, there were occasionally renowned clinical teachers who would hold lectures at the medical school, which could be taken as elective courses for credit.

In addition to the required courses, students also needed to satisfy the credit requirements for electives. Fortunately, in the previous years, she had almost completed her elective credits. It feels like all that’s left is to select a few teacher lectures to attend to get enough credits.

After a week of theory classes, the apprenticeship schedule for the Radiodiagnosis course was the first to be released.

There was no need to divide the group for apprenticeships in the Radiology department; fifty students marched en masse to the Radiology department in the afternoon. The scary thing was that when they arrived at Radiology, there was another undergraduate class joining the apprenticeship as well, adding up to more than a hundred students, with only one teacher to guide them.

Under such circumstances, learning anything was difficult.

The Radiology teacher first led the students around to familiarize them with the layout of the entire Radiology department, pointing out where the X-ray imaging was done, where the CT scanner was, and where the MRI machine was located.

After patients entered the machine room, the Radiology doctors were busy in the control room. Seeing this, the instructor could only get the students to observe from a distance to avoid disturbing his colleagues’ work.

Simply watching from afar like this, the students couldn’t understand much of what was going on. Some students began to feel bored and started chatting in the hallways.

Zhao Zhaowei and his three friends stood by the window and discussed Xie Wanying’s early internship.

“The counselor hasn’t notified her yet, has she? Does that mean it’s not going to happen? Does the medical school disagree?” the others asked Zhao Zhaowei, who was known for having insider information.

“My grandfather isn’t from the medical school, how would I know about the internal arrangements of the medical school?” Zhao Zhaowei shook his head, denying he had access to such information.

“If she can’t pass, doesn’t that mean we have even less of a chance to intern early?” Now, these people felt that Xie Wanying’s early internship might actually pave the way for them.

“Where is she?”

Almost all the students had stepped outside for some air. The inside was overcrowded and stifling; with the teacher not speaking and the students unable to see clearly from a distance, no one would be foolish enough to continue standing inside like a wooden statue.
