Doctor's Life Simulator

Chapter 252 Heavy subject: 15-year-old men and 16-year-old women may suffer from cancer!
After director Han's suggestion, Yan Zhengqi finally understood when he thought about the surgery video he had watched before. No wonder he felt familiar when looking at those operating hands.

Obviously, I have been doing surgery with Qin Lang all the time. Why is there a gap between me and my level is improving by leaps and bounds? Could this be the gap between a genius and an ordinary person?

Yan Zhengqi was silent, his mentality was a little bit broken.

After the operation, several young doctors left the operating room in a daze.

Professor Han Hu and Shen Xi stayed for a while, and called Qin Lang aside:
"Qin Lang, our hospital will have an academic exchange event on thoracic tumor surgery this weekend, and you should come to the event. At this event, our well-known directors and experts in the field of thoracic surgery and tumors in Zhejiang Province will Attending the conference, many directors will bring their surgical demonstrations. Not only for you, but also for us, it is a very good learning opportunity.”

Hearing Han Hu's invitation, Qin Lang was of course very excited. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In addition to learning from these bigwigs, the most important thing is to enter this top-level circle and get to know these contacts, which will be of great help to Qin Lang's medical career afterward.

Professor Shen Xi also did not expect that Qin Lang would grow so fast. In addition to this academic exchange event on the weekend, she said to Qin Lang:
"Qin Lang, I have always had a brand-new topic in my hands, about the early diagnosis of tumors, through the study of exosomes and liquid biopsy biomarkers. However, this topic requires a lot of experiments and various attempts, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. Energy, and even a little bit of luck. I haven't found a good candidate, I wonder if you are interested?"

Hearing Shen Xi's words, Qin Lang was also a little surprised. According to the development in the simulated world, he studied this topic with her for a long time before he took it out for research. He didn't expect Shen Xi to bring it up so early.

It seems that my perfect level of laryngeal dehiscence tumor resection really surprised Professor Shen.

[Ding, new task: To carry out and complete the early diagnosis of tumors, through the study of exosomes and liquid biopsy biomarkers.Open up a new direction for the field of cancer prevention and treatment in Huaguo, and publish it in top foreign journals.Task reward: 1.10 life simulation points, 2. Cardiac tumor surgery: entry level]

Qin Lang decisively accepted the task proposed by Professor Shen.

Seeing Qin Lang's decisiveness and vigor, Shen Xi was very satisfied, and the more he looked at his disciple, the more he liked it.

"In order to facilitate your development of this subject, I will equip you with a special laboratory in the Cancer Prevention and Control Center, and at the same time send two doctors to assist you. In addition, you are still in the city's first hospital after all, and the time will still vary." Assigned in two hospitals, I will communicate with the leaders of your city's first hospital, and jointly carry out this project with the general surgery and thoracic surgery of your city's first hospital, and build a laboratory for you. I will provide you with funds and equipment Done."

After all, Shen Xi is a strong woman with strong energy, and she has the support of academicians and brothers behind her. If she wants to do something, it is still easy within the scope of Zhejiang Province.

Not to mention, Shenxi's forward-looking and clinical value of this topic, the Municipal First Hospital is deeply honored to have this opportunity.

Unlike Zijingang No. [-] Hospital, the City No. [-] Hospital has a specialized tumor prevention and treatment center. Basically, some chest tumor operations are carried out in the Department of Thoracic Surgery and General Surgery.

In particular, the director of the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Director Zhou Hengzhou, is very good at emergency resection of malignant tumors invading blood vessels, thoracoscopic radical resection of esophageal cancer, and resection of various mediastinal tumors.

Zhou Heng is also a very famous and well-known doctor in Zhejiang Province. Even Shen Xi needs to learn from an old doctor like Zhou Heng in certain fields.

Therefore, Professor Shen Xi is very relieved to let Qin Lang follow Zhou Heng from the Department of Thoracic Surgery to study and carry out this brand new project.

Under the operation of Professor Shen Xi, naturally, a cooperation agreement was quickly reached with the general surgery department and the thoracic surgery department of the city's first hospital. The related laboratories were also quickly set up under the arrangement of Shen Xi. The funds, equipment, The resources are all in place very quickly.

Shenxi has been working on this subject for a long time, and has already had a rough design, and the international cutting-edge equipment will be introduced soon.

Shen Xi was originally a vigorous and resolute person. Once he recognized Qin Lang's ability, he set up a stage for him wholeheartedly. After that, he handed over the whole process to Qin Lang to perform.

Of course, before that, Shen Xi also took the time to teach Qin Lang relevant introductory knowledge.

Although Qin Lang now has entry-level knowledge of exosomes and liquid biopsy biomarkers, he still benefits a lot after communicating with Shen Xi.

For the direction of this topic, Shen Xi also placed high hopes, and opened a small stove for Qin Lang alone, with a serious face:
"Qin Lang, cancer has always been one of the most concerned health issues for people all over the world. Its high morbidity and mortality make people talk about cancer. According to the latest global cancer statistics, the incidence of human cancer is about 21.4%. The mortality rate is about 17.7%, and the incidence of cancer in men is 20% higher than that in women, that is, 1/5 of men and 1/6 of women may suffer from cancer, while 1/8 of men and 1/10 of women will die of cancer."

Listening to the data put forward by Professor Shen Xi, Qin Lang also looked dignified. Professor Shen Xi has devoted his whole life to the prevention and treatment of tumors. In this field, it can be said that as long as an individual takes a small step, it is a big leap for all human beings. step.There is pressure, but also motivation.

Every improvement and prevention technology can save countless lives.

Qin Lang also set a goal in his heart, striving to follow Professor Shen as soon as possible to find some new paths in this field.

Shen Xi continued to give lectures to Qin Lang:
"Cancer has become the main cause of death from diseases worldwide, and gene mutation is an important factor leading to the occurrence and development of tumors. Almost all tumors have DNA mutations. The existence of these mutations makes tumor cells different from normal cells. And this is what I plan to do. Theoretical basis for the subject developed."

"The specific biomarkers detected and tracked by tumor cells are used to diagnose the early stage of tumors, and to judge the type of tumors through different manifestations. Now international studies have shown that there are many types of DNA mutation sites and genes in tumors, and Different tumors have different specificities, which provides us with the possibility of accurate diagnosis. However, how to find out the specific biomarkers of different tumor types for accurate diagnosis is the test we face. "

"This requires a lot of experiments and attempts, and also puts forward high requirements for the improvement of detection technology."

Shen Xi looked at Qin Lang and proposed her top-level concept and design:
"Liquid biopsy technology, as a branch of in vitro testing, can use human blood, urine, lymph, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, pleural effusion and other fluids. A more complete whole-body cancer molecular map can be obtained through DNA sequencing and other means. To form a real precision medicine, to prevent and treat in advance, instead of conventional ones, to wait until the middle and later stages, to find out through various conventional imaging data, and to detect through the patient's pain and various signs. Often by this time, it is already too late .”

"In addition to early diagnosis, I also hope that our liquid biopsy technology can be continuously monitored. In addition to early diagnosis and disease monitoring, it can also launch personalized treatment, precise targeted drugs, accurate prognosis, and predict recurrence, etc."

When Professor Shen Xi was talking, his whole body was full of excitement and hope.

Qin Lang was also inspired by Professor Shen's vision, and he deserves to be Shen Xi, who is an academician.

When ordinary doctors are still practicing various existing techniques, what she devotes herself to research is the cutting-edge and brand-new field.

Perhaps this is the real charm of medicine, rather than simply becoming a surgeon.

Next, Shen Xi introduced the routine liquid biopsy subjects to Qin Lang:

"Qin Lang, our current routine liquid biopsy objects are divided into the following categories: 1. Circulating tumor cells, CTCs, 2. Circulating tumor DNA, ctDNA, 3. Extracellular vesicles, EVs. After that, you will mainly focus on these direction to test"
