Heated Rivalry MedicalAU headcanon no one asked for from a med student

Both Shane and Ilya would definitely choose a surgical specialty.

Source, trust me bro. No, seriously as someone who wants to become a surgeon and has been doing elective rotations aside from the compulsory ones in surgical departments for a good year (has this been a good idea for my gpa? No. Do I regret it? Absolutely not, I am in fact persisting), I can confidently say those two are a better fit for surgery.

The relentless pace, the ego, the craziness, the hectic atmosphere, the orchestrated parts and choreographies you have to learn to perform surgeries with the team require a top level sport like kind of coordination, the comradery with your team, the competitiveness, the passionate maniacal energy pouring out of very pore before you have to perform a complicated procedure, the fast response and unpredictability of the the outcome, the crass changing room humour? It's a perfect fit for them.

More specifically, I think Shane would be an Orthopaedic and Ilya a Paediatric Surgeon

OrthoBro!Shane because the guy screams ortho bro and I will not accept any objection. Competitive, the jockest jock to ever jock in history, super fitness focused, addicted to protein shakes whose brain is 95% sport/prosthetics and has the weirdest conversations with his patients, because he is so entrenched in his job he has no idea how to talk to normal people about it in a comprehensible way.

Paediatric Surgeon Ilya because my guy has the slightly adhd energy necessary to be a surgeon and especially a kind of surgeon that would need to adapt and operate on various anatomical districts in case of necessity. Great under pressure, a good communicator, he is an attentive captain and mentor and therefore he'd know how approach terrified parents and scared kids. Also, he'd totally be one of those doctors that dresses like a superhero as they accompany kids to the or.

Also, paediatric surgeons and orthopaedics often have to work together, so they'd definitely have chances to meet and share an OR.

Artificial Knees

The x-rays of osteoarthritic human knees on the top row are entirely fake – a research team generated them using an artificially intelligent algorithm – while those on the bottom row are genuine. Or, wait, is it the other way around? The point is, it’s impossible to tell, even for medical experts. Why have scientists gone to the effort of creating fake X-rays, you might ask. Rest assured, there’s more to it than simply trying to fool orthopaedic doctors. Having access to large amounts of patient data can be extremely useful for developing diagnostic, classification, and educational tools, but sharing genuine medical data can be a highly bureaucratic process. The idea, then, is that if AI can generate fake data of such high quality as to be indistinguishable from real patient data, it could be used to help build valuable tools without the hassle of untangling all the red tape.

Hospitals in Aleppo do not have enough room for new patients in the wake of last week's devastating earthquake, a doctor in the Syrian city said. At the Al-Razi Hospital there are too many beds to fit into the wards. They reach end-to-end through corridors and into the chilly courtyard. "We weren't able to discharge patients from the hospitals even after treating them. The city is damaged and there are no places for them to go," said Dr Nizar Suleiman, the head of orthopaedics. "Huge numbers of patients came in a short period of time. We have a huge shortage in medicines, so it's really worrying. For example, we suffer from a lack of medical equipment to treat fractures. We already suffer from this shortage because of the crisis, and the siege [sanctions] make it worse." More than 4,400 deaths and 7,600 injuries have been reported in north-western Syria since a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck neighbouring southern Turkey on 6 February, according to the UN.
