Healing Doctor

Chapter 181 The surgery was done really fast (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader Meng De x4)

When Ling Tian was changing clothes, he saw Ji Xiang's muscular physique, with eight-pack abs that looked like they were sculpted on his body, and he felt a little envious.

Good health is the most important thing. No matter when Ji Xiang wants to have a child and needs to step back from the front line, at least he can stay on the front line for a while now.

Moreover, he reached his peak right from his debut, something even Ling Tian envied.

But he couldn't say he was jealous; Ling Tian believed he had the magnanimity of his senior brother.

"Little Lucky".

"Teacher Ling, please go ahead."

"The boss went to great lengths for you." Ling Tian was particularly serious, raising an eyebrow and exuding a sharp aura. "For this conference, the boss invited Academician Teng from the Chinese Academy of Sciences."

"Chinese Academy of Sciences? Not Chinese Academy of Engineering?" Ji Xiang asked.

"Mm." Ling Tian nodded.

Doctors who are elected as academicians are usually from the Chinese Academy of Engineering, which is already the highest level of medical achievement.

The academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences that Ling Tian mentioned caught Ji Xiang's attention.

"Academician Teng rarely leaves Jinling, and the boss has put a lot of effort into this." Ling Tian only brought this up now.

Ji Xiang nodded solemnly.

He understood what Elder Qin meant, and it wasn't because he had a system that he looked down on all heroes. Director Liu was right; the martial world wasn't just about fighting and killing, but more about human relationships and social interactions.

Finding a teacher is like adding wings to a tiger.

Ji Xiang had thought this through very well, but he still didn't feel that excited. Even when he heard that Professor Teng, the only academician in interventional medicine, was attending the conference, he remained calm.

I guess it's because of the system's operating room; with such a huge cheat code, why would I care about these things?

Ling Tian felt that Ji Xiang didn't understand the importance of academicians in their fields. He smiled and said, "The boss has put in a lot of effort, so do your best. Don't let his hard work go to waste!"

"I understand, Teacher Ling." Ji Xiang nodded solemnly.

"You're in good health, do you work out regularly?"

"If I'm not on the night shift and don't have much to do, I run a half marathon every morning," Ji Xiang said.

"Good, good, good." Ling Tian said "good" three times in one breath. He felt that Ji Xiang was the boss's perfect disciple.

The interventional radiology department at the hepatobiliary hospital performs a large number of surgeries, but its reputation is not very high. This time, the boss has put in a lot of effort to make changes.

But to place one's hopes on such a young boy...

Ling Tian glanced at Ji Xiang, who had already changed his clothes, put on a sterile cap, and was tying the straps of his mask.

"Xiao Ji, go take a look at the surgery." Ling Tian led Ji Xiang into the operating room.

Although it was already afternoon, all the operating rooms were occupied with surgeries, and the lights in the "In Operation" section were so dazzling.

"We perform about a hundred surgeries a day," Ling Tian said with a smile. "The volume of surgeries is enormous; we're number one in the country."

Zhao Zhe stared wide-eyed at the sight of twelve operating rooms in a row, the faint hum of machines penetrating the airtight lead doors, evoking a sense of the sacredness of the hospital.

Not only that, there were also three stretchers in the corridor, with doctors applying pressure to stop the bleeding.

They chatted with the patient while keeping track of the time.

Soon, a patient was brought in and sat on a round stool by the door, waiting blankly.

As the door to an operating room opened, a stretcher was wheeled out, and a nurse led the patient inside.

The patients on the stretcher were still receiving pressure bandages. Ji Xiang guessed this was because of the large number of patients, and they wanted to maximize turnover. Pushing patients out for pressure bandages could save 10-15 minutes.

The department operates smoothly, like a machine.

"This surgery was done far too many times and too quickly," Zhao Zhe said in surprise.

Even though he was usually a chatterbox, he spoke very cautiously in the higher-level hospital, and his chatterboxing problem disappeared without treatment.

"Hehe." Ling Tian smiled faintly.

It's perfectly normal for doctors in small towns to be deeply shocked by what they see.

Their annual surgical volume may not even equal the daily surgical volume here.

"That's amazing," Ji Xiang exclaimed.

"Let's take a look at the control room." Ling Tian led Ji Xiang and Zhao Zhe into the innermost control room, which was staffed by eight people.

"This is for the boss only. You and the boss will go on stage at 2 PM," Ling Tian explained as he walked.

Upon entering the control room, the professional equipment was a sight to behold. Zhao Zhe seemed eager to get his hands on the top-of-the-line DSA equipment, like a child who hadn't had any candy.

But he didn't move; he just kept swallowing.

"Look, this is the Siemens FD20-1125mA fully digital flat panel angiography machine that I told you about," Ling Tian said.

The technician merely squinted at Ling Tian; the surgery was in progress, and he didn't say anything more.

Ji Xiang stood behind the technician, silently watching the screen and control panel.

A catheter is placed at the edge of the hepatic artery, and medication is being administered.

The contrast imaging showed one tumor in the left lobe and one in the right lobe of the liver. The surgeon then instructed the nurse to prepare the medication, which was administered using a high-pressure injector. The catheter was then removed, and the surgery was completed.

Ji Xiang was stunned in just a few minutes.

Apply the pesticide directly?

Why wasn't embolization performed?

Ling Tian, ​​however, was used to it and said to Ji Xiang, "There's still more than an hour left. I'll take you to the duty room next door to rest for a bit. You need to be energetic; the boss won't just take anyone to perform surgery these days."

"Teacher Ling."

"Um?"

"..." Ji Xiang had many questions, but he didn't voice them.

He remained silent, turned around, and followed behind Ling Tian.

Ling Tian believed that Ji Xiang was greatly shocked, which was also the purpose of taking Ji Xiang to visit the operating room.

"Top-tier equipment is a better match for top-tier operators," Ling Tian said. "Since the operation process is similar, the new fully digital large-panel DSA system is just a bit clearer; there's nothing special I need to tell you."

Ji Xiang remained silent.

He vaguely guessed why he had been feeling somewhat uneasy.

So that's how it is; that's how the 15-minute surgery was completed.

Ji Xiang did not directly ask Ling Tian. This matter was of great importance, so he planned to consult the system operating room and the system NPC first.

Zhao Zhe didn't say anything, and followed Ji Xiang and Ling Tian to the duty room with a head full of questions.

"Have the head nurse change the sheets and blankets, and make do with these for a while," Ling Tian said. "I won't bother you any longer. I'll come find you at 1:45."

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Ling."

"Oh, by the way, I have something to tell you: you can't smoke. The boss doesn't like it."

"Okay." Ji Xiang saw Ling Tian off and went straight to bed.

"Teacher Xiao Ji, I feel like there's something wrong with the surgery done here?" Zhao Zhe asked, puzzled.

Although he called him Teacher Xiao Ji, it was more of a formality, and Zhao Zhe didn't wait for Ji Xiang's reply.

"I knew a few years ago that there were no first-line chemotherapy drugs for liver cancer, but I don't know if that has changed. Why only administer chemotherapy and perfusion instead of embolization? That doesn't seem right. Is it some kind of advanced surgical procedure?"
