Chapter 1063: Chapter 577: Will Give It My All! (Please Subscribe)_2

As President Jiang Zhongbo, convening a consultation with experts from the four major domestic hospitals was no problem at all, after all, his status spoke for itself.

"That’s really great."

Upon hearing President Jiang Zhongbo’s enthusiastic support, Ding Yue immediately expressed his gratitude, "Thank you so much, President Jiang."

"Principal Ding, we are old friends after all. Moreover, after the successful application of your university’s 3D bioprinting technology at our hospital last time, our hospital’s status and reputation have soared, even surpassing that of Southwest Hospital and Yancheng Central Hospital,"

President Jiang Zhongbo said with a smile.

Indeed.

Ever since the successful operation using Mist City Arts and Science University’s 3D bioprinting technology at Mist City Central Hospital, it had become famous.

Nationally and even globally, this was the sole hospital capable of performing transplant surgeries with 3D bioprinted organs!

"By the way, Principal Ding, if it’s early-stage lung cancer, radical excision surgery might not even be foolproof. The best radical treatment would be a lung transplant, that is, using our 3D bioprinting technology,"

President Jiang Zhongbo suddenly brought up the matter regarding lung cancer treatments.

For early or mid-stage lung cancer, compared to advanced stages, the cancer is much more manageable. At this stage, even the best surgical capabilities cannot guarantee a 100% removal of all cancer cells during the lung tumor excision surgery.

After all, cancer cells are notoriously tricky!

Mist City Central Hospital had also encountered cases where early-stage cancer cells recurred after removal, a scenario that the top hospitals around the world have faced, which is impossible to completely prevent.

Then there is one method that can completely eliminate cancer cells that have not yet spread outside the lungs, and that is replacing them with a healthy lung organ.

That is the "perfect" treatment method.

Upon hearing President Jiang Zhongbo’s suggested treatment method, Ding Yue thoughtfully nodded and said, "It seems to make sense, but President Jiang, before this, apart from Xu Meijia’s case, have there been any cancer patients who underwent transplant surgery using our 3D bioprinting technology?"

This time was actually somewhat similar to Xu Meijia’s case.

Xu Meijia needed a liver transplant, while Director Qi Chunsheng needed a lung transplant.

However, it was clear that Director Qi Chunsheng’s case was more challenging than Xu Meijia’s due to his older age and the involvement of lung cancer.

"Not yet, the cost of 3D bioprinting technology is still not reduced enough. Actually, many patients still can’t afford this technology,"

President Jiang Zhongbo answered helplessly.

This was different from medical healthcare robots like Big White; 3D bioprinting technology was provided by Mist City Arts and Science University to Mist City Central Hospital with equipment and technical support, but the hospital also incurred high costs.

Thus, at present, the use of 3D bioprinting technology in organ transplant surgeries remains very costly and unaffordable for ordinary patient families.

"Another point is that this technology is only used in our Mist City Central Hospital and hasn’t been extended to other major hospitals, so the patients’ families and the like still have a wait-and-see attitude."

President Jiang Zhongbo explained the rather "awkward" situation that the 3D bioprinting technology was in to Principal Ding.

"Mm, I understand. Once we roll out the 3D bioprinting technology more broadly, there should be no problem. Also, regarding the cost, President Jiang, we aim to control it at the lowest point on our side, and we hope your hospital can also prioritize the patients’ needs as much as possible,"

Ding Yue said with some emotion.

"Of course."

President Jiang Zhongbo, due to the relationship with Mist City Arts and Science University, had already managed to lower costs somewhat. The hospital only made a certain amount from cover costs and the like.

However, despite this, the scarcity of raw materials for the bioprinting ink also meant that the prices of the finished products from the 3D bioprinter remained rather high.

"Principal Ding, however, to control the cost of 3D bioprinting technology within a range affordable for ordinary families, it’s not enough to just reduce some costs of medical equipment production on our side. The issue of raw materials for bioprinting ink needs resolution. I heard from Professor Yang Kaining that currently, only one biotech company in Europe possesses these raw materials,"

President Jiang Zhongbo suddenly added.

This time, the discussion reached the critical point.

"This is indeed a problem."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help but mutter, "Professor Yang only has expertise in bioprinting ink materials, while the raw materials need cost control."

"I will ask Professor Yang Kaining to master the technology of bioprinting ink raw materials as soon as possible. Otherwise, the application cost of this 3D bioprinting technology will always remain high, and we will be at the mercy of the Europeans."

Ding Yue thought for a moment, realizing it was time to talk to Professor Yang Kaining again and try to move this project up the agenda.

This matter was not too related to Professor Qi Chunsheng’s condition, actually.

Because if Director Qi Chunsheng needs a transplant surgery, there is absolutely no need to worry about the cost, not to mention that Director Qi Chunsheng’s financial situation was very good.

Futhermore,

As one of the core generals under him at Mist City Arts and Science University, Ding Yue could indeed afford hundreds of thousands or even millions in surgical fees.

"Dean Jiang, could you please arrange Director Qi’s surgery as soon as possible?"

"We at Mist City Central Hospital will do our utmost! When can Director Qi come to the hospital?"

"I’ll ask Qi in a moment and then update you, Dean Jiang."

"Okay."

After discussing Director Qi Chunsheng’s surgery with President Jiang Zhongbo, Ding Yue hung up the phone.

Then Ding Yue looked at Director Qi Chunsheng, who was sitting at the office desk, and smilingly said, "Qi, Mist City Central Hospital is ready to perform the surgery on you anytime. We will start with a specialist panel to decide the specifics. When would you like to go?"

For this matter, Ding Yue naturally preferred sooner rather than later.

After all, the sooner Director Qi Chunsheng successfully underwent the surgery and completely resolved the lung cancer issue, the sooner he could return to Mist City Arts and Science University.

Not only did Ding Yue hope for Director Qi Chunsheng to return to Mist City Arts and Science University after recovery, but he himself also very much wished for it.

"Since that’s the case, I’ll make the arrangements and adjust my condition to be admitted for treatment in the next two days."

Seeing how concerned Principal Ding was about his condition, Director Qi Chunsheng was very cooperative.

"Good!"

Seeing that Director Qi Chunsheng was no longer so stubborn, Ding Yue felt much relieved.

"Principal Ding, should the school issue a notice regarding Director Qi’s situation?"

Just then, nearby secretary Wen Ruohan suddenly asked.

After all, the entire office of academic affairs had been taken over by others, and even the temporary role of head of the academic affairs was assigned to Director Cao Guowei of the mechanical department. On the phone, Director Cao Guowei had also asked Wen Ruohan, not knowing what had happened to Director Qi Chunsheng that he suddenly had to act as the head of academic affairs.

"Principal Ding, I suggest we issue a notice. That way, it would be easier for other colleagues to take over my duties."

At this moment, Director Qi Chunsheng suggested.

Initially, Ding Yue thought about not disclosing Director Qi Chunsheng’s lung cancer right away, waiting until the surgery was confirmed to be problem-free before making an announcement.

But since Director Qi Chunsheng suggested so, Ding Yue nodded and responded, "That’s fine."

"Xiao Wen, please ask the public relations department to draft a notice stating that Director Cao Guowei of the mechanical department will temporarily assume the duties of Director Qi in the office of academic affairs."

Ding Yue then said to Wen Ruohan.

"Understood!"
