Medical Detectives
Ever want to be a detective and solve mysteries, conundrums, and enigmas? This series teaches you how physicians at UCSF function as detectives, solving strange illnesses, rare diseases, new infections and unexpected poisonings using their knowledge, deductive reasoning, and data gathering. Climb inside the mind of a medical detective and see how it works – how they obtain clues, synthesize data to formulate a hypothesis, and select and interpret their tests based on these hypotheses.
