Chen Cang’s words left everyone present stunned.
Everyone doubted if they had misheard him.
But, after exchanging glances... everyone couldn’t help but swallow hard!
Indeed!
What Chen Cang said was that he wanted to teach everyone to use psychiatric surgery to treat ntal illness!
These words sounded suspiciously like those "famous teachers" online.
Just like those old military doctors treating infertility and male performance.
Because the challenge is obviously imnse, who can keep such a promise?
Yet... everyone couldn’t help but feel a little hopeful.
Because, who is Chen Cang?
Even sothing as simple as his Chen’s Congee can save millions, although he started in surgery, he has a deep understanding of virology, and can pinpoint flaws in targeted drugs!
Can soone like him be making an international joke?
Of course not!
When Ke Mousi and others ca to China, they were already prepared for a do-or-die battle.
Psychiatric surgery, if this term can’t demonstrate its value, will truly be lost in the annals of history.
Ke Mousi’s conceptual surgery is rely a temporary preservation operation.
For psychiatric surgery to truly rise, it must prove itself!
And how to prove it?
Only through efficacy!
dical technology is different from others.
Efficacy is the real core!
Talking about healthcare without efficacy is pure folly.
The purpose of a doctor is to save lives and heal the wounded.
Ke Mousi excitedly looked at Chen Cang: "Professor Chen... is what you’re saying true?"
Even Wu Hui and others were hesitant to speak!
He personally experienced psychiatric surgery, the amygdala lesion surgery is highly complex, even after being taught by Chen Cang for so long, he hasn’t mastered it—can it be any less difficult?
Moreover, the difficulty of psychiatric surgery is said to far exceed that of neurosurgery!
Wu Hui had a premonition!
Once psychiatric surgery matures, it will undoubtedly beco the most challenging, intricate, mysterious, and demanding surgery in the surgical world!
Can such a surgery truly be taught?
Wu Hui genuinely felt a bit anxious.
Yet Chen Cang smiled slightly: "Indeed!"
The arrival of those from the World Psychiatric Association in China already caused a stir, naturally attracting many journalists.
So upon hearing Chen Cang’s words, everyone was instantly in an uproar!
This was explosive news.
Teach everyone?
This boast, if true, is quite astonishing.
In a mont, many reporters felt a thrill inside.
This is big news!
This is akin to Professor Chen directly admitting he’s performing surgeries for ntal illnesses and also promising to teach these techniques.
This is unbelievable!
As ti went on!
The dia began hyping the story consistently.
Those who previously said Professor Chen’s congee was useless also seized the tide of the tis, rushing to report Professor Chen’s bold statents, missing no opportunity!
All coverage was positive this ti.
However, this boast was so loud that it drew the attention of countless people.
Especially from the psychiatry associations and various pharmaceutical companies.
Where there is a need, there’s a market.
And health is a need for everyone.
Naturally, many giants erge behind the health industry!
Among them, so are shrewd, so are greedy, so are cunning... even so are ruthless!
But undeniably, the health industry has beco a tool for many capitalists and families to profit.
And psychiatric drugs, painkillers especially so!
If there’s one type of patient in the world who complains the least, who is easily misunderstood by family, and easily discriminated against, it undoubtedly includes psychiatric patients.
And in 2021 alone, according to IMS-health statistics.
Global spending on psychiatric dication exceeded 70 billion US dollars, accounting for 8% of total drug sales.
Furthermore, as people’s life pressures gradually increase, this figure is continually rising, soon becoming a hundred-billion-dollar ga-market.
To know, the entire costic industry is only about a 30-billion-dollar market.
So, facing such a trillion-dollar market, who wouldn’t want a share?
As the news of Chen Cang confirming surgical treatnt for ntal illness spread, it can be said to stir up a storm!
Profit!
Competition!
Market!
These words shouldn’t appear in the eyes of patients.
Because healthcare shouldn’t be capitalized upon.
Healthcare should be based on science, aid at efficacy, not dominated by the market.
However, modern dicine, from the day it was born, was already tinged by the soil that bred it.
In the capital market!
No one is willing to spare the healthcare industry.
Even for profit, many treatable diseases remain under the control of an invisible force.
For instance, if hypertension could be cured... can you imagine the loss when the hypertension drug market evaporates?
The sa holds!
ntal illness itself is a chronic, incurable condition that requires long-term or even lifelong dication.
As the number of sufferers increases, the patient ratio will grow larger, likewise, their needs will multiply!
At that point, pharmaceutical companies producing antipsychotic drugs will just brim with profit.
Healthcare is red, and so is capital.
If ntal illness could indeed be cured through surgery... where would they earn then?
In an instant, the gathering storm looms!
On the surface, institutions seem calm and quiet with no news leaked out.
Yet, the calr the sea, the more likely it’s breeding a storm of epic proportions!
Soon!
Academic papers started inundating major journals as they launched the first round of bombardnt!
Including "The Lancet," "Nature," "Science," "British Neurosurgery"... and many other journals unilaterally began publishing nurous papers.
And the authors of these papers are well-established figures in their respective fields.
"Psychiatric Surgery, an Immature Discipline!"
"On the Shortcomings of Ke Mousi’s Conceptual Surgery"
"The Damage of Amygdala Lesions to the Nervous System"
...
No other topic, everything is about the exploration and research of neurosurgical treatnt plans.
But these opinions are absolutely correct!
If looking at Ke Mousi’s anticipated conceptual surgery, even if perfectly executed, it’s challenging to achieve the desired surgical outcos!
Because surgical treatnt for ntal illness disrupts the patient’s brain structure, causing significant damage, making its effectiveness uncertain!
Moreover, during the initial trial phase, so patients treated with surgery had their conditions worsen, thus it’s not recomnded to treat ntal illness with surgery!
But they didn’t argue that psychiatric surgery shouldn’t exist, but tactfully suggested that this field is still immature!
The authors of these papers are all titans in their realms, and in a mont, the tide began to change!
