Diagnostic Testing Logic
Shocking Clinical Discovery: A real review would verify patient records, operative notes, consent, complications, credentialing, reporting, peer review, and regulator response. The available evidence does not support adding unshown injuries, lab values, operative findings, medication doses, timestamps, or definitive outcomes.
