Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 492 - 396: Successful Development of siRNA Colloid Beam, Ma Xiaochen Survives Close Brush with Death!
Two weeks later.
Ten o’clock in the morning.
Inside Ma Xiaochen’s ward.
Today is a very special and important day because three days ago, the siRNA colloid beam was developed and used on Ma Xiaochen for the first time. Today is the day to monitor the tumor markers in Ma Xiaochen’s body in real time to verify the efficacy of the siRNA colloid beam.
With such a significant event, the director and Gao Jun are present, along with Ma Jianteng, Liu Qing, and Zhao Heng. As for the journalists, they are certainly kept out. A wealthy individual like Ma Jianteng protects his family very well and values their privacy. Generally, he does not allow excessive exposure, especially in such matters.
The results are not yet out, but Ma Jianteng, Liu Qing, and the three members of Ma Xiaochen’s family are already very tense. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
This time, it’s really a matter of life and death!
Even the director and Gao Jun appear uneasy. Although the siRNA colloid beam has been developed and put to use, how effective it can be remains unknown.
The human body is mysterious and complex; no one dares to guarantee that a newly developed treatment method will work against a terminal illness like late-stage brain glioma.
If it proves ineffective or cannot meet the expected outcome, then Ma Xiaochen is as good as gone.
Clinically, no doctor dares to claim that any treatment given to a patient will be 100% effective.
"Dr. Zhao, are the results not out yet?"
Ma Jianteng couldn’t help but ask Zhao Heng. Despite his usual unflappable demeanor, he now appeared somewhat flustered and worried.
After all, this is his own son, arguably the most important person in his life, without exception.
"Comprehensive testing takes a bit of time."
Zhao Heng explained.
He could very well understand the feelings of parents.
After all, he himself would get married and become a father one day, having his own children.
"Dr. Zhao, you’ve been troubled during this time."
Liu Qing said to Zhao Heng, knowing how difficult it is to treat her son’s illness, especially after bringing him back from the Mayo Clinic after three months.
Moreover, developing an entirely new treatment method for a single illness is extremely rare worldwide.
It can be said that Zhao Heng, as the attending physician, has done his utmost for her son’s illness; no one could have done better.
In other words, this is also Ma Xiaochen’s good fortune, or rather, the fortune of wealth. After all, only someone like Ma Jianteng can afford to fund such research in the entire country.
"It’s my duty."
Zhao Heng responded politely, though he felt comforted by Liu Qing’s words.
Even a simple thank-you depends on who says it. Although Zhao Heng has a good nature, he hasn’t reached the realm of being unmoved by material joy or sorrow, or indifferent to praise or criticism.
Even if he reaches that realm one day, it would probably be after he turns forty.
The atmosphere in the ward was not relaxed; everyone was waiting.
Soon, Liu Meng came in hurriedly from outside the ward with a stack of test results. As soon as she entered, everyone’s eyes turned to her, and the intensity of those gazes, especially from these influential figures, made her slightly nervous.
"Director, the results are out."
Liu Meng handed the test results to Zhao Heng, feeling her palms sweat nervously from being under the watchful eyes of several senior figures, even in such a short moment.
"Okay."
Zhao Heng took the test results and began to scrutinize them closely, with the director and Gao Jun leaning closer to look as well.
Meanwhile, Ma Jianteng, Liu Qing, and Ma Xiaochen anxiously awaited the test results, especially Ma Xiaochen, the young super-rich heir not even twenty years old. At this moment, he felt as though he was awaiting judgment from the grim reaper, a completely unique feeling for someone like him.
One might believe that after going through this experience, Ma Xiaochen would surely be different from other wealthy heirs. Just what the differences would be, remains to be seen.
When Ma Jianteng and Liu Qing started to feel impatient and wanted to ask Zhao Heng,
Zhao Heng looked up and said to Ma Jianteng and Liu Qing, "The results are very positive. The lesion in the brain area shows signs of significant shrinkage, and the tumor markers indicate that the tumor cells have stopped growing."
"Dr. Zhao, does this mean the treatment is working?"
Ma Jianteng asked, his voice trembling.
He was incredibly excited at that moment, more so than when he was awaiting the listing of cockroach gold service, which he knew was just a desperate struggle doomed to fail.
This time, he absolutely did not want to face failure.
For Ma Jianteng, who possesses unimaginable wealth, all material pleasures in the world are dispensable. Instead, as he ages, the importance of familial affection becomes increasingly significant in his heart.
"Yes, based on the current test results, the siRNA’s effect on brain glioma surpasses any known treatment method."
Zhao Heng nodded and spoke objectively.
The test results were right there, an irrefutable fact.
"Doctor, does this mean I can recover?"
Ma Xiaochen, hearing these words, also trembled as he asked Zhao Heng, afraid of hearing words like "but" or "it’s hard to say."
