Chapter 1091 Magic kills cancer cells? Many problems need to be solved!
In the hospital in Grete's previous life, there were several main ways to kill cancer cells.
The first is traditional methods, such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. The advantage is that the effect is significant, but the disadvantage is that it is too harmful to the body. Whether it is surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy, after one treatment, only one layer of skin will be peeled off.
The second is some more sophisticated methods, such as radiofrequency ablation, embolization of feeding blood vessels, and proton and heavy ion therapy. The advantages are precise, minimally invasive, and effective, but the disadvantage is that the coverage is not precise enough and it is easy to miss something...
After all, tumors are not necessarily perfectly round. Ablation and proton and heavy ion therapy both erupt heat from the center and may miss the corners. Embolization of feeding blood vessels may cause a problem if a blood vessel is missed.
Third, it is the latest biomedical method, such as targeted therapy. The advantage is that the effect is really good and the side effects are really few. The disadvantage...
The disadvantage is that targeted drugs are extremely expensive, costing tens of thousands or tens of thousands in medical expenses a month, and drug resistance can develop after a year or two...
As for certain types of tumors, there are no corresponding targeted drugs, which is another problem.
Grete still knows these basic knowledge, but he has never used it. He is an emergency doctor, and these slow diagnosis tasks are all left to his colleagues——
Liver cancer is thrown to the hepatobiliary surgery department, breast cancer is thrown to the thyroid and breast surgery department, lung cancer is thrown to the thoracic surgery department... Of course, some are also thrown to the internal medicine department... oncology department...
Anyway, his own task is just to be careful not to touch the tumor during the operation, and then call for consultation when the time comes, and issue referrals when the time comes.
However, as a doctor, it’s not like he hasn’t thought about dealing with cancer himself. He didn’t have the chance before, but now that he has the chance, Grete plans to try the fourth method:
That is to say, mental power locks on cancer cells, covers the patient's whole body, and kills all cancer cells in a targeted manner.
I thought well, but in the past it was fine when used to kill bacteria and viruses. However, once it was used to kill cancer cells, something went terribly wrong.
"Stop the bleeding! Stop the bleeding! Healing!
!" Grete shouted. After he shouted the first word, a green light fell down and caressed the rabbit's body, but Elder Fahim saw that the momentum was not good and quickly took action.
For a moment, the rabbit's breathing became heavier, and the waveform on the electrocardiogram also slowed down slightly. It was obvious that the bleeding was successfully stopped, and the vital signs were restored. Gretel breathed a sigh of relief, and began to hold his head and think:
Why did something go wrong?
Why, when a magic spell goes on, something suddenly goes wrong?
The only way to relieve his worries is to experiment. He first picked up the rabbit, did another B-ultrasound, and then did a CT scan. Thank God, the elder's treatment did not come with hair growth function, and the shaved rabbit did not need to shave again...
…
"Well... the amount of ascites seems to have increased... It's normal. If there was internal bleeding just now, the blood would flow into the abdominal cavity and should show up as ascites on the B-ultrasound..."
"The tumor... the size of the liver has indeed shrunk..." Gretel called up the images stored in the meditation core, compared them before and after, and nodded:
"It shows that the targeted killing is still successful. These cells have indeed been killed... However, whether they have been completely killed, we still need to do a biopsy in a few days to see the results of the sampling... As for now..."
"How about it?"
Elder Fahim and Cerela, one on each side, looked over. Gretel took a deep breath and shook his head:
"Wait for me to dissect and see..."
Anatomy, dissection. Fix the rabbit, open the abdomen, and remove one lobe of the liver with the tumor. While cutting, explain to Elder Fahim:
"Don't rush to remove the internal organs. If you can't get up, just use a knife... First, you need to free the internal organs with tumors, including many surrounding ligaments, thoracic adhesions, and abdominal adhesions. All of them need to be cut off or bluntly separated..."
"Then we cut the liver, first severing the round ligament of the liver, the falciform ligament, the left and right triangular ligaments, and then freeing the porta hepatis, including the hepatic artery, hepatic vein, and bile duct, ligating and cutting off the bleeding in the corresponding parts.
It will be reduced a lot..."
"For doctors, any guess, any examination method, X-ray, B-ultrasound, CT, MRI, are inferior to simply opening the abdomen for exploration and taking a direct look at the situation. Okay, now we see this piece of liver
cyst..."
Well, that's why he has to research first instead of treating Phila immediately. The beast used for research can be disemboweled as much as he wants, explored as much as he wants, and cut into pieces as he wants. This way
Treat patients?
Impossible. As a doctor, you must be responsible for the patient and cannot waste the patient's life and health casually!
Grete carefully cut off the piece of liver, held it up using the floating technique, and transferred it to the experimental table on the side. As the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from the belly. Seeing it with your own eyes is indeed different from guessing through the abdominal wall:
After targeted killing, the color and shape of the tumor were different from normal tumors. It was soft and soft, like a moldy orange, and began to drip out.
Grete held the tissue tweezers transformed from the mage's hands and touched it lightly. The tumor capsule split open on the spot. He touched a syringe and drew out a large tube of liquid. It was red and sticky.
Nianhu Lake looks like a pot of spoiled soup.
Gretel took a breath and began to dissect bit by bit. After this dissection, he found that the cyst was empty, and many cells had either completely shrunk or disappeared.
So, what happened to these cells after a shot of targeted killing?
He didn't have time to think about this, so he analyzed it piece by piece and dissected bit by bit. Finally, when the intrahepatic blood vessels and bile ducts were exposed one by one, Gretel let out a "Yeah":
"I see!"
"What's wrong? Did you find the reason?"
Serila jumped over to take a look. Elder Fahim and Aneri Linge, although not as excited as she was, also came over quickly and stood next to Grete. The four people, with eight gazes, all fell on the cross section.
On an open cyst:
"Look here, the blood vessels and bile ducts are all pitted - this is a sign that cancer cells have invaded the blood vessels and bile ducts."
Gretel took a step back to let them see more clearly, and then used the mage's tricks to dye the tissue:
"The spell I just used killed the cancer cells at once, leaving many holes in the walls of blood vessels and bile ducts. The blood and bile inside leaked out. This rabbit is not going to die."
"this……"
Serila blinked her eyes and nodded, accepting the explanation. Elder Fahim frowned:
"Why are there holes after killing them? These... uh, cancer cells, have been killed, but aren't their bodies still there?"
Grete also wanted to know this question. When he targeted the killing of bacteria and viruses in the past, he had never paid attention to what form the killed bacteria and viruses took, or where they went.
Is it immediately removed from the body, like an antidote?
Or is it over when the bacteria die and can no longer divide and reproduce, and the genetic chain of the virus collapses and loses activity?
Reading with rice balls
These problems are not important when it comes to sterilization and poisoning. As long as the disease is cured, it is enough. However, it is obvious that time cannot be spared. What was not done before has to be made up for now...
He made four smears of the fluid extracted from the cyst, and gave them to Serila, Elder Fahim, and Miss Lin Ge for observation. Finally, he kept one for himself and put it under the microscope:
"A lake..."
Serila couldn't wait to get closer and take a look. After a quick glance, she immediately started shouting:
"Grete, what are you looking at in such a blur? You can't even see the cells!"
"Well, if you can't see it, it means the cells are dead and dissolved." Gretel also stared at his microscope, observing and remembering attentively:
"Generally speaking, it's not that fast. From cell death, to cell membrane fragmentation, to cytoplasm overflow, it takes a few hours. However, after being swept away by magic, it collapsed immediately..."
Obviously, magic accelerated this process. The magic swept through, and a large number of cells quickly reached the stage where the cytoplasm overflowed. As a result, the cancer cells blocking the blood vessel walls and bile duct walls collapsed, and the blood vessel walls and bile duct walls were broken.
It’s a hole, so it naturally leaks...
"What should we do?"
Cerira frowned, turned her head, and put her head behind Grete's shoulder to take a look. Grete stepped aside unhurriedly, made room for her, and showed off the newly prepared tissue slices:
"Celera, freeze!"
"Eh!"
The silver dragon girl responded happily, pursed her lips and blew. A cold wind blew by, and the tumor tissue was frozen into ice cubes. Gretel continued to slice, stain, and put it under the microscope to see:
"Well... some cancer cells have not completely disintegrated... Although they have been killed, they have not yet reached the stage of cell membrane fragmentation..."
"Huh? What do you think?"
Serira squeezed forward with all her strength. Grete had no choice but to make way for her, and at the same time used [Silent Phantom] to outline the image and lecture her:
"You see, the cells under the microscope will first shrink, the cell membrane will wrinkle, and small bright spots will form under the microscope. Then, you see here, the cells will become pitted, like an octopus, right? And then, there will be
Split into cellular fragments..."
"That's it..."
Cerira looked up at the image, then looked down at the eyepiece; then looked up at the image, then looked down at the eyepiece.
Elder Fahim and Miss Lin Ge stood on both sides, and it was difficult to squeeze in. They could only try to memorize the images first. When Serila had seen enough or lost interest, they would line up to go up and watch.
Alas, it’s not easy to learn something when you are already so old and you have to queue behind the little silver dragon...
It is even more difficult to study something. After Grete finished a lecture, he squatted next to him and muttered to the incised tumor:
"So why do some cells disintegrate so quickly? Is the magic fluctuating too much? Is the output too strong? Or... how should I plug the holes in the blood vessels?"
Ahhhh, it’s so difficult... there are so many experiments to be done and many ideas to be verified...
Is it possible to give me 48 hours a day...
