    I was young when I watched the show and thought it was at least somewhat based on real medical science.

    Though I got skeptical when I saw an episode where they trained a computer on brainwaves present when they looked at different pictures and used that to visually reconstruct the patient’s lost memories or some shit?

      There was one where they sorta see a dream the patient is having from brainwaves, which is sci-fi, but at least based on actual research. I don’t remember why they assumed that would help diagnose the patient, but it probably didn’t make much sense.

      There’s also one where House recreates his list memories by taking many drugs

      Gell-Man phenomenon: popular media is accurate and trustworthy, except on any subject where you know better.
