CLINICAL CASE SIMULATOR

Clinical cases
that breathe.

Every patient arrives with a story. Your task is to discover it.

Begin a clinical caseSee how it works

02 EVERY PATIENT HAS A STORY

They arrive with a story, not a diagnosis.

Patients never arrive carrying a diagnosis. They arrive carrying discomfort, uncertainty and fragments of a story.

Some symptoms seem important. Others are distractions.

Your first responsibility is not to diagnose. It is to understand.

“Diagnosis begins with listening.”

03 LEARN BY ASKING

You lead the conversation.

The AI plays the patient — it answers only what you ask.

1. Patient

The AI plays the patient. It answers only what you ask.

2. Conversation

Ask anything. The story unfolds naturally.

3. Observation

Look closer. New signs emerge as you probe.

4. Tongue

Ask, and the patient reports the tongue signs.

5. Pulse

Ask, and the patient describes the pulse.

6. Pattern

Weigh the evidence and identify the pattern.

7. Treatment

Choose — then the mentor reviews your reasoning.

04 EVERY QUESTION MATTERS

The questions you ask shape what you find.

Ask the right question and a clue surfaces.

Skip an area and it stays hidden.

The picture you build is only as good as the questions you ask.

1You ask
2The patient reveals
3You build the picture
4You reason
5You decide

05 REVIEW

Every case becomes your teacher.

After each case, the mentor reviews your whole process — not just the final answer.

  • What you did well
  • Which clues were missed
  • Which questions you should have asked
  • Which classical sources support the diagnosis
  • How an experienced physician would reason

Your diagnosis

Liver Qi Stagnation

Mostly correct

Good observations

  • Emotional stress identified
  • Irregular menstruation noted
  • Tongue coating observed

Missed clues

  • Appetite changes not asked

Ask next time

  • How is your sleep lately?
  • Any change in appetite or digestion?

An illustrative review — every case is graded on your real questions and choices.
