Understanding Teacher Jin's thoughts, Xie Wanying said: "I think it would be more appropriate not to rush into the surgery and complete all other examinations."
"What test?"
The patient underwent all inpatient examinations during her internal medicine hospitalization.
Xie Wanying said: "I see that this patient did not undergo MRI."
The little junior sister is really straight-forward.
Dr. Jin smiled bitterly: "Yingying, let me tell you, the problem with magnetic resonance imaging is-"
Magnetic resonance imaging is more expensive than CT scan. As a doctor friend, he will help his patients to save money. For example, when Dai Ronghong helped someone save the examination fee, it shows that Dai Ronghong's approach is not a special case and is a common practice among doctor friends.
Dr. Jin is a specialist in my friend’s disease, so I am more confident to help my friend save money.
Xie Wanying said: "I believe that Teacher Jin must also know that it is best to perform a 3D-CISS sequence examination and PC-MRI magnetic resonance phase contrast cine imaging on the patient."
Dr. Jin's forehead spewed out drops of sweat.
This is not an ordinary magnetic resonance examination, a special magnetic resonance examination is more expensive.
And if the junior sister hadn't mentioned it, she never thought that these two examinations could be done. These two examinations are the most advanced examinations. They are not written in the textbooks.
Classmate Wei who was present first said that he was once again confused by what classmate Xie said, and asked classmate Pan and classmate Geng: "Do you understand what Yingying said?"
This time, Classmates Pan and Geng were silent.
Wei Shangquan was happy: Finally, these two guys became scumbags with him and couldn't understand what classmate Xie said.
The junior sister is amazing. These two examinations are almost never prescribed in clinical practice and are remote and unpopular specialist examination items. The junior sister can actually know all the treasures. Huang Zhilei raised his eyebrows excitedly. The junior sister came back to the neurosurgery department like a duck to water.
Seeing Senior Brother Cao's silent expression, he was full of smiles.
"These two examinations can accurately identify the type of hydrocephalus in patients. Is it obstructive hydrocephalus or communicating hydrocephalus? Or is it an arachnoid problem? It is very important for doctors to determine the cause, and it can also help us.
The doctor evaluates the volume and enlargement of the patient's ventricles and the volume of brain tissue, understands the movement of cerebrospinal fluid and the direction of the cerebrospinal fluid, and plans a more precise surgical plan." Xie Wanying's voice is unhurried and clear, which shows that she is well versed in such unpopular professional knowledge.
Dr. Jin admires her. This little junior sister is indeed a top student, but what she must confess is: "Yingying, I still can't do it. Her family doesn't have the money."
What is the purpose of asking patients to undergo such expensive examinations?
The reasons you mentioned above are far from enough.
Clinical miracle doctors and good doctors are not just responsible for helping patients cure their illnesses.
What if the doctor asked the patient to spend a lot of money for further examinations and finally came up with the same shunt plan?
Patients and family members will: Well, like this?
Patients and family members will ask around for treatment information about similar patients to determine whether the doctor's words are wrong.
The fact is that in clinical practice, due to the poor family financial situation of most patients, doctors generally will not prescribe such expensive examination items to patients. As a result, although such examination items are said to be good, no patients have the money to use them, and they have become unpopular, including her, Dr. Jin.
Didn't even think of it.
This will cause my family members to mistakenly think that your doctor is trying to trick me into doing more examinations and spending useless money. Otherwise, it is because your doctor's skills are not good enough that he would let me do unnecessary examinations.
Dr. Jin was an experienced expert in the field and told the junior sister that this would not work.
