Surgery Godfather-Chapter 1369 - 1039: Building Our Own "System

The issue of translation has always given Director Lian headaches, not to mention the minor languages, even finding a translator with some medical knowledge in English is extremely difficult.

Medical specialties carry a high degree of specificity, and if a translator comes from an English background, no matter how many medical terms they learn, they can’t understand the medical knowledge and can only translate rigidly, which sometimes leads to misunderstandings when the translation is not good.

Therefore, translation at medical academic conferences has always been a big challenge and can only be managed as it comes. Many conferences end up being translated by the doctors themselves, not only the conferences, but in fact, most medical textbooks are translated by the doctors too. Generally, the top talents in the medical industry have a high level of English proficiency, which is considered standard.

After running for some time, Sanbo Hospital’s International Medical Department has gained some experience. After all, domestically there is no hospital that currently owns a true International Medical Department, even if there are International Medical Departments, they cannot be considered as genuinely facing the world.

It can be said that the establishment of Sanbo Hospital’s International Medical Department is without precedent in China. For instance, the likelihood of European and American tycoons and politicians seeking medical treatment at Sanbo Hospital is extremely slim in other hospitals.

Currently, except for the issue of translating minor languages, Yang Ping is quite satisfied with other aspects. The International Medical Department as a whole feels very professional, and everyone has devoted a lot of effort to it.

After finishing his outpatient rounds and lunch, Yang Ping rested in the department at noon, and started his surgery in the afternoon. In any case, every day was fully scheduled, with work revolving around seeing patients and performing surgeries.

After completing the day’s surgeries in the afternoon, Yang Ping found time to bring the doctors from the Surgical Research Institute to visit these international friends, including Li Gaoyang. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Yang Ping had seen Li Gaoyang’s head CT images before. At that time, it was John Ansen from the Mayo Clinic who sent the CT images to Yang Ping for consultation on the diagnosis and treatment suggestions. Yang Ping’s memory of case data far surpassed others, almost reaching a level of photographic memory, a skill formed from dealing with a large volume of medical records in the System Space.

Accompanied by Director Lian and the supervising doctor of the International Medical Center, Yang Ping arrived at the ward, and when he saw Li Gaoyang, he was using a laptop to look up some information. By his side was his companion Rolf and a blonde woman; his visit to China was very low-key, bringing only these two people.

Rolf is Li Gaoyang’s good friend and childhood companion, a member of the family, and the blonde woman is his personal secretary. Although he is in the hospital, there are still many affairs that need to be handled.

Seeing Yang Ping coming to check the ward, Li Gaoyang couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous. Not long ago, he had acquired the thinking pattern of seeking medical care in the Chinese style, according to which receiving special attention from the doctor indicated that one’s illness was more complicated and serious compared to others.

Now seeing Yang Ping coming to the ward to visit him in the afternoon, he was very worried.

"Is there anything wrong with my illness?" Li Gaoyang asked worriedly.

Yang Ping said with a smile, "Don’t be nervous, we’re just making our routine rounds."

Li Gaoyang, who manages such a large family business and has seen countless people and himself is a high-ranking figure with a strong imposing presence, felt that the aura of Yang Ping, in front of him, was much stronger than his, with a confidence and composure on his face that he had never seen before.

Yang Ping asked a few simple questions related to the illness and then said:

"I have seen your head CT images before?"

Although the CT images from that time and the current CT images of Li Gaoyang show that the tumor in the skull has grown a bit, Yang Ping could still tell that the two sets of CT images were of the same person, but the illness had progressed.

Upon hearing this question, Li Gaoyang’s face turned pale with fright. He thought that Yang Ping was bringing up past issues, and given his previous egregious behavior, Yang Ping was likely to refuse performing the main surgery on him.

But then, Li Gaoyang thought that his current surgical appointment was arranged by Huang Jiacai, so everything should have been smoothed out already.

Uncertain and perplexed, Li Gaoyang had no idea how to answer, fearing that a wrong response might result in inconceivable consequences.

"This—this—" Li Gaoyang stammered.

Yang Ping was very confident in his judgement. Other judgements might be mistaken, but this kind was absolutely correct. So, without waiting for a definite answer, he said: "Compared to the CT images I’ve seen before, the volume of the tumor on your current CT images has enlarged, so it’s good that you’ve come in time. However, it is now very dangerous, and surgery is needed as soon as possible."

Li Gaoyang, gauging Yang Ping’s reactions and responding said: "Yes, yes, thank you, Professor Yang."

Seeing that Yang Ping was only talking about the illness without caring about anything else, he quickly added: "Previously, Dr. John Ansen from Mayo was my primary doctor, and he sent my CT images to you to consult your opinion."

After speaking, Li Gaoyang nervously observed Yang Ping’s reaction.

Yang Ping nodded slightly: "I thought so. I’ve seen your CT images before, and I wouldn’t forget them."

Li Gaoyang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: John Ansen was right, Professor Yang has a photographic memory for these case files, and he surely remembers the images he has seen. It’s good that I listened to John Ansen’s advice and didn’t try to deceive Professor Yang, but resolved the issue through honest negotiations.

Apart from Li Gaoyang, Yang Ping also made his rounds to see each international patient staying in the hospital. The Surgical Research Institute is the core technical force of the International Medical Department, and naturally, Yang Ping would come to make rounds himself. Director Lian also followed Yang Ping, collecting information along the way to see if there were still areas for improvement.

After completing the rounds in the International Medical Department, Yang Ping returned to his office and sent an email to Professor He at Nandu Medical University about the scheme for modifying M13 bacteriophage.

The work of trial and error for the modification of M13 bacteriophage is gigantic; it was previously the responsibility of the System Space Laboratory to complete, but now, without the help of the System Space, Yang Ping decided to delegate the task to the computer.

Using his knowledge in mathematics and biochemistry, Yang Ping proposed a method of using the computer for screening. For this method, Professor He’s team would need to establish a model and use it for screening, which could significantly speed up the process and avoid wasting a large amount of manpower and time.

After recently obtaining funding, Professor He began recruiting a lot of talents. In addition to the original team, he hired experts in mathematics, artificial intelligence, and other areas, intending to upgrade Digital Human Technology and establish a Digital Human platform relying on artificial intelligence.

The plan for the supercomputer server at Nandu Medical University has also been put on the agenda. The discussion is now focused on where to build the machine room. Once the location is determined, Nandu Medical University will establish a supercomputing center, which will be mainly used by the Digital Medical Laboratory.

Although temporarily without the System’s assistance, Yang Ping did not slow down his research efforts. He decided to fully utilize computers, especially supercomputers, to assist him in his scientific research. Having read a vast number of books in various disciplines in the System Space library, he had amassed extensive knowledge, and now was the time to make use of it.

In the past, with the help of the System Space, the desire to develop various computer-assisted platforms might not have been so strong. Now, without the System, this need is very urgent. Moreover, Yang Ping believes he has the capability since he had conducted extensive research on the "optimal choice" problem in the past and possesses systematic knowledge in this area, a capability lacking in other medical researchers.

Since there is no System for the time being, Yang Ping now plans to build his own "system" in reality, a "system" that can not only help himself but also many others.
