The radiology director nodded at Chen Cang’s words!
"Alright!"
The director of the X-ray room, seeing the determination in Chen Cang’s eyes, couldn’t help but feel a bit more resolute himself.
Because he truly was infectious!
The doctors waiting and observing outside saw the switch of personnel, and although they didn’t say it outright, they still felt that this approach wasn’t very feasible!
Even President Alvin sighed in disappointnt.
To be honest, he was the person who most wished for Sidis to wake up, but... so things cannot be determined by one’s will.
Ti passed second by second...
Soon, Sidis’s wife and child ca out.
Both looked sowhat dejected.
After coming out, they were silent.
It was clear... this ti still wasn’t successful!
Old Ma and others couldn’t help but sigh at the sight.
Cang Er, you’ve been putting on airs for so long, this is the only ti I’ve seen you fail...
Forget it, I’ll pretend I didn’t see it this ti.
Those around started to whisper among themselves.
"It won’t fail, right?"
"Well, pretty much, after all, a vegetative state isn’t easy to wake from!"
"What is Professor Chen’s goal?"
"I don’t know, maybe there’s still a chance, let’s wait and see!"
Everyone hoped Chen Cang would succeed, this ti everyone was willing to stand on his side.
In fact, they couldn’t find even a hint of dislike for this Professor Chen who disregarded his own safety to save the patient.
Chen Cang felt a bit lost!
Still no cortical response!
Could it be that the patient really has extensive cortical brain damage?
Thinking of this, Chen Cang couldn’t help scratching his head.
What to do?
"Professor Chen? Are you okay?" ca the voice of a radiologist frequent in the X-ray room through the loudspeaker.
Chen Cang looked up and smiled: "I’m fine!"
Seeing this, Abatte also consoled: "Professor Chen, if it’s not doable, let it go... it’s natural for life and death to occur."
"And Sidis was also for the country..."
Before Abatte could finish, Chen Cang’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Right!
He suddenly felt that for Sidis, the strongest stimulus wasn’t these, but the country!
Having figured it out, Chen Cang quickly said: "Mr. Abatte, I might need your help!"
Abatte was stunned: "?"
Chen Cang nodded: "Yes, you!"
"I need you to talk with Mr. Sidis, just like talking about work, you can even talk about so things between you two, or discuss the national matters, the more Sidis cares, the better!"
Abatte hesitated for a mont: "Alright!"
Abatte’s secretary’s face changed: "Mr. President, there’s radiation inside..."
Before she could finish, Abatte’s face darkened: "Professor Chen also knows there’s radiation inside!"
Speaking of which, Abatte resolutely walked in.
Those outside saw President Abatte enter the room and were stunned for a mont!
Why did President Abatte go in?
Chen Cang signalled to the radiology director for surgery, and then said to Abatte: "You can start now!"
Abatte took a deep breath: "Sidis, I said I would wait for you to co back and personally throw you a celebration banquet, you completed your task well..."
Abatte spoke each word clearly.
Ti passed second by second, and at this mont, Chen Cang’s face suddenly brightened!
Because he noticed a change in the EEG!
The evoked potential wasn’t as significant either.
It appeared!
It finally appeared!
Chen Cang’s face brightened instantly.
He said to the radiology director: "Get ready for the X-ray! It might show!"
The radiology director’s face changed and he quickly bowed his head to look.
Finally, he found that there was indeed an abnormal signal under the PET scan, just as before!
He was surprised to find that Sidis’s intracranial structure showed special information.
Especially, there was an increase in cerebral blood flow in the head of the cingulate gyrus, the right superior temporal gyrus, and the premotor cortex!
This region was higher than in response to nonverbal auditory stimuli!
What does this an?
This ans Sidis is not completely in a vegetative state!
Nor does it an that his cortex is dormant.
It’s very possible that Sidis’s intracranial blunt contusion caused cortical damage!
With this in mind, the radiologist exclaid with joy:
"Professor Chen, it’s appearing! It really appeared! The cortex is fluctuating!"
Chen Cang was instantly overjoyed!
The two of them suppressed their extrely tense and expectant feelings, barely managing to produce the result of the images.
At this point, everyone inside the X-ray room was stunned!
It turned out it really was possible!
And Abatte, while talking, also beca sowhat sentintal.
They were old comrades, old friends... when talking about working hard for the motherland, Abatte couldn’t help but feel emotional.
Hearing the reaction from radiology.
Abatte excitedly turned to Chen Cang: "Professor Chen! You must save him!"
Chen Cang nodded happily: "I will! I will!"
After saying that, he didn’t bother to deal with Abatte and hurried directly to the X-ray room.
The crowd saw the automatic door open, thinking it was a failure.
But suddenly saw Chen Cang rushing anxiously to the X-ray room.
Upon entering, Chen Cang stared at the computer screen’s display.
Pumped his fist excitedly!
"Fantastic! There’s a result!"
This report might not wake Sidis, but it can identify where the patient has problems.
Since there’s a cortical response, it indicates that patients in a vegetative state might have so "implicit" recognition ability, though it remains to be seen whether the cortical response to sensory stimuli suggests recovery from the vegetative state.
It ans, the patient can be saved!
Having figured it out, Chen Cang opened one image after another, carefully comparing them!
Each of these images, like signals, continuously enriched the four-dinsional picture in Chen Cang’s eyes.
Combined with EEG, event-related potentials, PET... etc., images!
Chen Cang imdiately identified the precise damage location!
In an instant, he was thrilled.
It looks like the patient’s cortex isn’t dead, but rather necrosis caused by intracranial blunt injuries is obstructing cortical function!
The next step is to do debrident for intracranial inactive tissue!
With this in mind, Chen Cang said to Xiba: "Director Xiba, prepare for surgery!"
"Intracranial contusion and laceration inactive tissue debrident!"
"Notify the operating room!"
Xiba quickly stood up: "Alright!"
Abatte looked at Chen Cang: "Professor Chen, Sidis can be saved?"
Chen Cang’s lips curled up slightly, his efforts had not been in vain: "If I’m not mistaken, there shouldn’t be a problem!"
Abatte was thrilled to hear this: "Good! Good! Good! Everyone, fully cooperate with Professor Chen!"
Chen Cang ca out of the room and said to Xue Zhengren: "Director Xue, co to the surgery with ?"
Xue Zhengren was startled, then quickly responded, nodding enthusiastically!
"Alright! Thank you, Professor Chen!"
The surrounding onlookers were stunned!
Did it really succeed?
This... Professor Chen is too aweso!
...
