Gu Jingtian did not decline politely. She used the spiritual water to treat the wound directly. Zhu Yanyi handed her the special surgical thread. After Gu Jingtian stitched the wound and applied medicine, she finally relaxed. She looked at Zhu Yanyi and said, "It was lucky you came to help today, Junior Sister."
"Senior Brother is very skilled. However, our domestic instruments are indeed insufficient for heart surgeries. Relying solely on our internal energy to locate the issue is very difficult. The precision is hard to achieve. In my opinion, if possible, we should import a CT scanner. Although we look down on some drawbacks of Western medicine, some of their machines are still useful," Zhu Yanyi said casually.
Gu Jingtian asked Miao Kai to handle the cleaning. He went aside to wash his hands, took off his mask, and confirmed everything was fine before signing the report. He let Miao Kai push the patient out of the operating room. "Do you think I don't want to? I submitted a report for this long ago, and the higher-ups agreed to the purchase. However, those foreigners, although curious about our Traditional Chinese Medicine and even eager to learn it, refuse to share their technology. This CT scanner is reportedly their most advanced instrument. Importing one would take an unknown amount of time, and the price is high."
"Then we build it ourselves," Zhu Yanyi said suddenly.
Gu Jingtian sighed helplessly. "I wish I could build it myself, but I lack the ability. Our country has asked many capable people to research this, but unfortunately, there has been no progress."
Hearing this, Zhu Yanyi frowned slightly. Although a CT scanner is just a machine, it is indeed a useful tool for ordinary doctors. At least it allows for a clear view of the body's internal conditions. If the country does not have one, it seems they really need to find a way to build one. She wondered if there were any books on this subject in her Ruyi Space. Zhu Yanyi planned to search the space thoroughly when she got home. If there were relevant books, that would be best.
Gu Jingtian and Zhu Yanyi walked out of the operating room. The Yan family members were waiting at the door. Yan Aohan came over, glanced at the person being pushed out by Miao Kai, and asked, "How did it go?"
"The surgery was successful," Gu Jingtian said seriously. "There were three shrapnel fragments in Third Uncle Yan: one in the abdomen, one in the left shoulder, and one one centimeter from the heart. All fragments have now been removed." Gu Jingtian answered earnestly, her face looking a bit tired. Although Zhu Yanyi had helped, the surgery had taken nearly four hours, so she was still exhausted. "However, since Third Uncle Yan is already old, her recovery will require more careful care. Her recovery speed will not be as fast as a young person's, but she is no longer in danger of death."
"That is good. Thank you, Dean Gu," Yan Aohan said to Gu Jingtian.
Gu Jingtian waved his hand slightly. "Do not thank me. If you want to thank anyone, thank my Junior Sister. I had no confidence regarding the wound near the heart. It was Junior Sister who used acupuncture to push the shrapnel three centimeters away from the heart, allowing me to complete the surgery successfully."
"Little Divine Doctor, thank you," Old Madam Alo Gesang looked at Zhu Yanyi with gratitude.
Zhu Yanyi felt helpless in her heart. She dared not accept such thanks casually. She smiled and said, "Old Madam, there is no need for this. We are doctors. As doctors, this is our duty. Now that Third Uncle Yan is out, you should accompany her to the ward and handle the hospitalization procedures."
"I will handle the procedures. You take Dad to the ward," Lan Man, Yan Huajun's wife, said.
