"Immunologists (Allergists / Clinical Immunologists) are the biological hackers of the human defense system. To strictly differentiate: The Infectious Disease Specialist fights the foreign bacteria invading the body. The Immunologist fights the body itself, stepping in when a patient's own white blood cells go insane and start destroying their own healthy organs (Autoimmunity), or overreacting fatally to a harmless peanut (Anaphylaxis)."
Infectious Disease Specialist
"Infectious Disease (ID) Specialists are the biological warriors of the hospital. To strictly differentiate: The "Epidemiologist" sits in a government office looking at a map of where the virus is spreading. The "ID Specialist" puts on a hazmat suit, walks into the Intensive Care Unit, and physically injects the experimental drug into the dying patient infected with that virus."
Internal Medicine Specialist
"Internal Medicine Specialists (Physicians / Pakar Perubatan) are the absolute master diagnosticians of the hospital. To strictly differentiate: The "General Surgeon" uses a scalpel to fix a specific physical trauma. The "General Practitioner" sees simple, walking patients in a clinic. The "Internal Medicine Specialist" is the real-life Dr. House, the elite intellectual who takes charge of a dying, hospitalized patient whose heart, kidneys, and lungs are all failing simultaneously, and uses pure biochemistry and pharmacology to solve the puzzle and keep them alive."
Interventional Radiologist
"Interventional Radiologists (IR) are the high-tech, video-game surgeons of the medical world. To strictly differentiate: The "Diagnostic Radiologist" sits in a dark room looking at an MRI on a screen to find the tumor. The "General Surgeon" cuts the patient's belly open to remove the tumor. The "Interventional Radiologist" looks at the live X-ray screen, inserts a tiny wire into a vein in the patient's wrist, drives the wire all the way down into the liver, and fires a microwave laser to boil the tumor alive through a pinhole in the skin."
