Vol 5 Chapter 2450: The new diagnostic gold standard

【Revision】

Seeing this, Xiao Zhihang nodded and thanked the virtual person on the screen, then got off his seat, came over and smiled at Wu Hao and said, "I didn't expect such a machine to be able to monitor ECG and B-ultrasound. It is so convenient, it can greatly improve the patient’s visit time, clarify the condition, and thus intervene faster to save those critically ill patients.”

Wu Hao said with a smile after hearing the words: "This is also to give patients a better experience in seeing a doctor, and will not rush back and forth because of some heavy checks, which not only delays time, but also avoids delaying the condition due to these numerous checks, which will lead to the aggravation of the patient's condition." .

In this clinic, in addition to electrocardiogram, b-ultrasound, and blood pressure, we can also perform routine ENT examinations under the endoscope, as well as some routine physical examinations and so on. "

"Xiao Wu, why did the system arrange MRI examinations for Zhihang instead of more targeted examinations like CT?" Chen Lao asked Wu Hao immediately after hearing the words.

This is also what puzzled the doctors present, because in general clinical consultations, there are generally two types of diagnostic examinations for coronary heart disease, one is the routine enhanced CT examination. By injecting a contrast agent, it is then possible to better contrast and image the entire cardiac vascular network. However, this injection of contrast medium is also a minimally invasive examination, which is harmful to the body. But weighing the pros and cons, this is indeed a very good detection method. Because it is fast, direct, convenient, and cheap, it is a routine inspection method in many clinics.

However, this is not the gold standard for examination and diagnosis of coronary heart disease. Generally, coronary angiography is the most accurate means of diagnosis. However, this minimally invasive examination is still harmful to the body, and it is expensive. Doctors do not order this test unless necessary.

It stands to reason that MRI examination is better than CT imaging, but why is it not used by these doctors for coronary heart disease examination. On the one hand, it is because the price of MRI examination is relatively expensive, and on the other hand, it is because the time of MRI examination is longer, which may be unbearable for some critically ill patients.

Another thing is that the patient cannot carry metal in the MRI examination, which is definitely inappropriate for some patients with cardiac stent pacemakers including cardiac bypass.

In addition, MRI imaging needs to be processed and diagnosed, which takes a long time and is often easy to delay the condition, which is why these doctors do not arrange it.

Hearing Chen Lao's words, Wu Hao said with a smile: "Because the enhanced CT requires the injection of a contrast agent, and it would be too time-consuming to conduct another examination, so the intelligent medical diagnosis system chose the MRI examination.

We have greatly improved the 3D imaging technology of nuclear magnetic resonance, which can make the relevant scanning data of nuclear magnetic resonance get out in a very short time, and form a 3D model, even a 3D dynamic model, which is of great significance for the diagnosis of patients with coronary heart disease. very big.

We even think that this will become another gold standard for coronary heart disease examination. "

The experts and doctors present couldn't help showing surprise when they heard Wu Hao's words, and then began to discuss one after another. Apparently, Wu Hao's words have been greatly questioned. They don't believe that the gold standard that has been used by the medical profession for decades can be subverted and replaced if it is replaced. How can there be so many gold standards? , I really think who I am.

Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chen frowned slightly when they heard Wu Hao's explanation. They glanced at the crowd who were arguing, and then waved at Wu Hao and said, "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, let's see first."

Seeing that the two of them had spoken, everyone stopped, and then nodded. Indeed, what's the use of discussing now, you can see for yourself whether what Wu Hao said is true or not.

Immediately surrounded by everyone, Wu Hao and the others came to the MRI examination room in the examination area.

The entire MRI examination room was no different from an ordinary examination room. Everyone stood behind the glass window and watched Xiao Zhihang take out all the iron things on his body, and then walked in.

Reminded by the intelligent voice, he lay down on the bed, and then the MRI equipment started, pulling him into the equipment. With the operation of the nuclear magnetic resonance equipment.

On the large screen outside the glass window here, there is an MRI scan image data. These image data are mottled and very noisy. Because the heart is constantly beating, it will affect the results of the entire contrast scan.

But as the intelligent system is connected and processed, the images of these scanned images become clearer and clearer, forming clear scan contrast images one by one.

And so many countless scanning contrast images are stacked together through various angles, and then a heart model is formed. The heart model was a little rough at first, but as the intelligent system intervened in the calculation, the model became more and more refined, presenting the appearance of Xiao Zhihang's entire heart.

The whole scan lasted about five or six minutes, and then, under the reminder of the intelligent voice, Xiao Zhihang got up and walked out of the examination room.

The MRI scan images on the big screen also came out, and multiple 3D digital heart models were formed. As more and more of these 3D digital heart models are synthesized together, a beating dynamic heart model is formed.

Seeing the beating heart model on the big screen, Xiao Zhihang couldn't help showing a wry smile: "It seems that this knife can't be avoided."

Hearing Xiao Zhihang's words, Mr. Zhao couldn't help but frowned, looked at him and reprimanded him: "You are a doctor, or a heart surgeon, how can you hide your illness and avoid medical treatment. This disease is not a serious one, and it can't kill anyone.

Besides~www.readwn.com~ Didn't this kid even create an intelligent artificial heart? In case of misfortune, it will be enough to transplant one for you. You have to correct your mentality and stop saying such depressing words. "

"Yes, teacher!" Xiao Zhihang nodded immediately upon hearing this.

Well, Mr. Zhao just nodded, then waved at him and said, "Come on, let's take a look at your heart together."

"Um, okay!" Xiao Zhihang froze for a moment, then smiled wryly and came to the front of the big screen.

Seeing this deformed and abnormally beating heart, everyone present began to discuss and discuss. There were quite a few experts in cardiology and cardiac surgery present, who were very confident about this condition, and began to interpret it one by one.

At this time, some exploded diagrams of Xiao Zhihang's heart models appeared on the big screen, such as the dynamic model of the vascular network of the entire heart, the entire myocardial model, including the heart chamber model, the valve model, and even the blood flow velocity model of the entire heart vessel, etc. .

Seeing these detailed digital 3D models, the doctors present couldn't help but gasp, and then they all exclaimed in unison.
