Welsh Hospital, 1962.
Experts from Hong Kong, the United States, the mainland, and many other countries looked at Lin Sanqi who was speaking on the stage, and at the same time, they kept looking at the strange machine on the table.
The machine was playing a CT video, and the content was a strange image film that they had never seen before.
Lin Sanqi slid the mouse across the CT scan from beginning to end. The image began to change, finally stopping at a screenshot:
"Look, is there something like a tree branch or a small bud here? This is the tree bud sign I mentioned this morning. This phenomenon is often caused by tumor cells expanding along the bronchi and alveolar spaces.
In addition, mucinous adenocarcinoma usually presents as a diffuse lobar invasion that may involve one or more lobes. Imaging shows large patches of increased density with unclear lesion boundaries.
In the morning, Dr. Ji said that seeing diffuse miliary shadows in both lungs and judging it as a case of tuberculosis was actually wrong. This diffuse shadow is often caused by the spread of cancer cells.
Lin Sanqi was speaking excitedly, and the doctors below were discussing enthusiastically.
Ji Banana obviously couldn't accept this result:
"Doctor Lin, I looked up the relevant literature about the mucinous adenocarcinoma you mentioned this morning, but I didn't find any relevant information. Who knows if you made it up?
Similarly, the so-called X-ray you produced may look quite realistic, but it's an unproven medical instrument, and its accuracy is uncertain. To say it's cancer based on what you described as tree branches is too arbitrary, isn't it?
The doctors in Hong Kong started to make a fuss at this time:
"Yes, our Hong Kong Wales Hospital is the best hospital in the world. How come we haven't heard of it?"
"During lunch, I also asked experts from various countries, and they also had never heard of CT."
"Don't tell me that the backward mainland is already ahead of us in medical technology. Then why are so many mainland refugees coming to Hong Kong to beg for food?"
Hehehe~~~
At this time, a liaison officer from the WHO also stood up. It was estimated that the public relations had been prepared by noon.
"Lin, indeed, you make a very good point, but this new technology is only understood by you or your country, and has not been recognized by your peers around the world. I guess this cannot be used as a basis."
Lin Sanqi cursed inwardly. He hadn't come yet and was clamoring for evidence.
I came by myself and gave them the CT scan, but they said they didn't recognize it.
They're right anyway, so how can I argue? The double standards of Western countries are truly disgusting.
The Harvard team, led by Professor Anthony, now shares a common interest with Lin Sanqi and naturally stands on his side:
"Sorry to interrupt, regarding the CT technology invented by China, I can prove that China is far ahead of other countries in the world in imaging diagnosis.
Everyone may know that the X-ray machines we are using now are 750 mAh large X-ray machines, but China can already produce 1250 mAh large X-ray machines. Based on this point, China is already ahead of us.
Let's talk about CT technology. This is a new type of X-ray imaging technology. This technology is already in the clinical trial stage in China. Are there any Japanese experts here? Oh, I see, this gentleman raised his hand.
Is your country's Nichimen Kaisha the largest chaebol? The wife of the chairman of the company was diagnosed with the disease through CT scans, and Dr. Lin also used endoscopic techniques to remove the tumor without surgery.
I have witnessed all of the above with my own eyes, and I guarantee on my reputation that CT technology is truly effective and superior to X-rays. I believe that it will not be long before China will promote this advanced technology."
Professor Anthony is the Vice President of the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease and a big shot in the international medical community.
His assurance made a large number of doctors present believe in CT technology and Lin Sanqi's theory of "mucinous adenocarcinoma".
Ji Banana was clearly unconvinced:
"Lin, you obviously need some other evidence to convince us. We are doctors, not wizards. We can't treat illnesses based on our feelings."
Lin Sanqi thought to himself, you are blind, the evidence is right in front of you, you can sue me with this CT scan, and you turn around and accuse me of treating the disease based on my feelings?
"Doctor Ji, what kind of evidence would you consider to be proof? I suggest a biopsy."
Ji Banana still shook his head:
"Let's not even talk about whether the patient agrees to the biopsy. Even if the biopsy is successful, you've already said mucinous adenocarcinoma is a new disease. What the pathology results will be is up to you alone."
Many people in the conference room also nodded.
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with what Ji Junhao said. No one else has heard of this disease, so how to interpret it specifically is not in Lin Sanqi's hands.
By this time, Lin Sanqi had already figured out the mentality of this Gang Can and had an idea in mind.
So he fiddled with the laptop for a few seconds, and immediately two pathology sections appeared on the slide.
"Everyone in this conference room is an internationally renowned medical expert, and I believe everyone can understand these two pathology slides.
The characteristic of mucosal adenoma is that the tumor cells produce a large amount of mucus, and the mucus component accounts for more than 50% of the tumor.
Histologically, the tumor grows in an infiltrative pattern, forming distinct pools of mucus separated by thick collagen fibers, as shown in this image. Mucosal adenoma cells are often embedded in the mucus.
In addition, the cell morphology of mucosal adenoma is simple, with obvious mucus formation in the cells. This picture clearly shows that the nuclei of malignant tumor cells are poorly differentiated, the nuclei are darkly stained, the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio is large, there is a certain degree of atypia, and nuclear division is easy to see.
Okay, I have shown you two typical mucosal adenocarcinoma section images in advance. On the other hand, if you want to confirm whether my judgment is wrong, you only need to perform a through biopsy on the patient.
"When the time comes, I'll just compare the patient's pathology slides with the two slides I have now. If they match, then my diagnosis is correct; this is cancer, not tuberculosis. If they don't match, then I'm wrong."
Everyone in the conference room nodded slightly, and at the same time they were a little curious. When did China's medical technology become so advanced?
Lin Sanqi looked at Ji Banana with a smile:
"Doctor Ji, what do you think of my suggestion? How about we make a bet? Which diagnosis is correct, yours or mine? The loser gets to call the other dad from now on."
Ji Junhao is also a smart man. Seeing that Lin Sanqi has both CT scans and pathological sections, he is also full of doubts in his heart. This does not seem to be fake.
So he turned around and discussed with his two superiors.
The medical grades in Hong Kong are generally divided into medical doctors (MO), senior medical doctors/deputy medical doctors (SMO), principal medical doctors (PMO), and consultants.
The corresponding domestic ones are practicing physician, attending physician, associate chief physician, and chief physician.
Ji Junhao was able to pass the exam to become an associate consultant physician, which is equivalent to a deputy senior level in the mainland. He is naturally very smart, but the sense of superiority he felt towards mainlanders made him a little blindly confident.
"Don't even mention worshipping someone as your father. If I win, and I adopt a mainland son like you, I'm afraid I'll be a laughing stock in Hong Kong's medical circles tomorrow. I only accept godsons from graduates of top medical schools."
Mainland doctors like Jia Xuezhen all glared at him angrily, thinking that the master was humiliated and the servant was dead, and they wanted to go up and beat up this junior fellow.
Because Jia Xuezhen graduated from Cambridge University Medical School, Ji Xiangjiao also graduated from this school.
Lin Sanqi laughed at himself:
"If we're talking about diplomas, I definitely can't compete with you. I only studied under my father, in a private school, and haven't even attended a regular medical school. Yet, a peasant like me can diagnose diseases that others can't.
And you, a so-called overseas medical student and associate consultant at a renowned hospital, don't even have the courage to make a bet. What's going on? Do you lack confidence in yourself, or do you think I'm too good and you're willing to admit defeat?
Professor Theodore raised his eyebrows and thought, wait, why does this routine seem familiar to him?
Sure enough, Ji Junhao couldn't stand the provocation and sneered:
"Why wouldn't you bet on this? There are fifty or sixty experts from various countries here. Which doctor agrees with your diagnosis of mucinous adenocarcinoma? If you want to bet, then let's make a bet. Aren't you amazing? Come on, let's make a bet of one million Hong Kong dollars."
Ji Junhao announced a 1 million bet, and the doctors at the scene were all shocked. (End of this chapter)
