Chapter 1010 You have no idea what you missed

Macallan Bar.

With everyone's explanation, Ted's mood is improving.

But Adam and the others knew that this was only temporary.

Go back to sleep at night, wake up tomorrow, and Ted will fall into the depression of Anna's death again.

Fortunately, after Adam's diagnosis, Ted was not so sad that he got a mental illness.

Don't try it out, just get through it for a while.

Soon after.

One morning, they would see a fully recovered Ted greeting them.

"Matthew, Lily, remember to take Ted with you the day after tomorrow."

Before leaving, Adam exhorted.

"understood."

Lily agreed.

"Adam, is this really necessary?"

Matthew hesitated: "I think a physical examination in the previous year is enough.

Now it is suddenly changed to a semi-annual physical examination. Those imaging examinations will cause radiation damage to the body, right? "

"Ah."

Adam smiled and said, "Don't worry, X-rays and CT do have radiation effects.

Although not high.

But once every six months is really not good.

But nuclear magnetic resonance examination is the use of biological magnetic field nuclear spin imaging.

X-rays and CT scans use radioactive rays for imaging on a completely different principle.

Therefore, there is no potential harm of radiation when doing MRI. "

"Since this is the case, why do we mostly hear about X-rays and CT?"

Lily asked curiously.

"It's not easy, one word, money!"

Barney chimed in.

"Right or wrong."

Adam glanced at him, and explained to Lily and the others: "NMR is not only free of radiation hazards, but also can obtain better and more accurate results in various special inspections.

But it also has disadvantages.

The first one, of course, is expensive!
CT examination itself is not cheap.

emmm.

Ok.

It should be said that as long as you enter the hospital, nothing is cheap.

However, MRI is generally more than twice as expensive as CT.

If it is not really necessary, medical insurance will not support you to do MRI.

The second thing is that each inspection method has its own limitations.

The principle of nuclear magnetic resonance is naturally not suitable for examining patients with cardiac pacemakers and metal residues in their bodies..."

Speaking of this, Adam couldn't help laughing.

But he remembered a Mexican peso that was forced into Shelton's nostrils by the silly boy next door when he was five years old.

It is still there today.

Every time Sheldon flies through the security check, it takes an extra 45 minutes for a full body check.

That taste...

And once Sheldon is sick and needs an MRI, he must first undergo surgery to remove the coins.

Otherwise, entering the MRI room, under the influence of the magnetic field, Sheldon would be like being attacked by Magneto.

The coins in the nostrils instantly turned into bullets, either blasting Sheldon's nose or blasting his head.

That scene... the future Leonard will definitely pose as Magneto next to him when he meets him.

Thinking about it this way, Leonard's future research project uses a magnetic field to suspend metal balls in the air. He often pretends to be Magneto.

It turned out that I had an idea a long time ago and came prepared.

It is to prepare for a super-powerful recovery one day in the future, and be able to strike first before Sheldon explodes his head with his thoughts.

"What are you laughing at?"

Lily asked curiously.

When Adam mentioned the coin in Sheldon's nostril, everyone laughed, and at the same time had a more vivid concept of why some people can't do MRI.

"An MRI machine is not as open as a CT machine because it creates a magnetic field."

Adam went on to explain: "It's semi-closed.

The space is relatively small.

People who are claustrophobic can't have an MRI.

Furthermore, although MRI examination imaging is rich and varied, it does not have the best effect on all diseases.

For example, the display of calcification, the display of acute bleeding, lung examination, etc., are not as effective as CT examination.

Finally, there is the question of checking the time.

X-ray and CT machines can be done in a few minutes.

Now it has developed a portable one, which can quickly produce results within 1 minute.

An MRI scan takes about half an hour.

In many emergencies, there is simply no time to wait that long.

These reasons together determine that most people do less MRI.

But we don't need to consider these in our physical examination..."

"Adam..."

Lily and Matthew felt a little embarrassed.

From annual comprehensive physical examination to semi-annual.

This fee is not a small burden for ordinary people.

And because Adam accepted the free medical examination, of course they were a little embarrassed.

"Don't think about it."

Adam laughed, "That's what I asked you to do.

I let you do the inspection, not for you, but for me!
As a famous doctor, if the relatives and friends around me, I can't prevent them from getting sick in advance, especially if they are seriously ill, and treat them in advance.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing to say it out?
And not only you, Chandler, Monica and the others.

But all my good friends will be compelled by me to have a comprehensive physical examination.

It used to be once a year.

Now I think once every six months is the best.

Since it is for the sake of my understanding, it is naturally me who arranges everything.

I am a doctor in the first place, so this fee is nothing to me at all.

Don't think too much about it, just treat it as a good friend's welfare. "

"Okay, but thank you anyway."

Lily and Matthew said sincerely.

Although they are still young, they have not yet reached the age for physical examination and health maintenance.

But the death of Ted's wife from cancer at such a young age touched them a lot.

Only when people are really close to disease and death, will they cherish their health more and more.

People can be poor, but they must be healthy and happy.

"Ted, you're coming too."

Adam looked at Ted, who was lost in thought, and smiled meaningfully: "If you want to have a perfect future, start now, trust me!"

"okay."

Ted came back to his senses, seemed to understand something, and nodded heavily.

Adam smiled slightly.

If in the future Ted meets his real name Tiannv, the mother who is perfect for his father.

Then Ted would understand how lucky he was to have Adam as a good friend.

"What about me? What about me?"

Barney couldn't help jumping out when he saw the warm and touching words of the people.

"you?"

Adam glanced at him: "You are so rich, you waste so much money every year just to pick up girls.

As long as you spend less time, it is enough for you to have a comprehensive physical examination for the rest of your life.

So, wherever it is cool, you can go and stay there, don't bother me! "

After speaking, he smiled wryly at Matthew Lily and the others, and walked away.

"You really disgusted Adam."

Lily sighed: "He is the perfect friend, what a pity..."

"Who cares!"

Barney also felt a little regretful, but he could only keep his mouth shut: "He also said that I have money..."

"He is Adam Duncan, the Einstein of medicine."

Matthew reminded: "No matter how much money you have, you can't buy his medical services.

This is the best medical guard in the world.

Still a family, forever!

You now have no idea what you're missing. "

Barney: "..."
