Chapter 528: Boss, I Want To Praise You

“Here.” Zheng Ren took out a pen and tapped on the film with the tip of his pen. He said, “The density doesn’t seem right. The CT reconstruction isn’t reminiscent of malignant tumors.”

Su Yun stood at the back and watched quietly.

He could not understand why Zheng Ren would find an excuse to disagree with the diagnosis of such obvious bone tumors.

Was it to comfort the patient’s family?

However, would it be crueler to give hope during despair and then stamp it out?

Professor Rudolf Wagner hesitated and did not agree with Zheng Ren’s words.

Although he was a top imaging expert, he would still hesitate when encountering rare diseases.

After Zheng Ren finished speaking, he continued to ponder.

He seemed to have an epiphany earlier but before he could put a finger to it, the thought quickly ran away from him.

What was wrong? When did it start?

Zheng Ren looked at the film, but his mind began to recall what the patient’s father had said when he came in.

Could it be...

“Tell me again about your daughter’s previous discomfort,” Zheng Ren said.

“Weakness in the limbs, panic, shortness of breath, bloating...” It was difficult for the patient’s family to repeat every word, but these words had long taken root in his mind. He could not forget them even if he wanted to.

There it was!

A lightning-like figure appeared in Zheng Ren’s mind, cutting through the endless night sky.

What did a bone tumor have to do with shortness of breath and abdominal distension? It was not as if they had absolutely no connection, but there was no real basis for those symptoms appearing.

If it were really a tumor, it would definitely affect other organs.

Zheng Ren’s gaze immediately focused on the top half of the 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction on the patient’s chest.

The pen in his hand tapped hard on the film. It made a sharp sound, startling the professor.

“Lil Fugui, look here!” Zheng Ren was a little excited.

“Boss, in the mediastinum...” Subconsciously, Professor Rudolf Wagner wanted to say something but when he looked over, all his words were stuffed back into his mouth by an invisible hand.

There was a white shadow in the mediastinum. At first glance, it looked like a fat shadow. However, one could tell that it was not fat if they looked carefully. It was more like...a hyperplastic thyroid or parathyroid gland.

Retrosternal thyroid was rare, but it could certainly not be ruled out.

However, it had nothing to do with bone tumors.

“Boss, I’m not quite sure what you mean... ” Professor Rudolf Wagner’s words were a little hesitant as he was confused and uncertain.

Su Yun was a little confused but for a moment, he recalled some special cases he had studied through records in the literature journals about retrosternal thyroid.

“Hyperparathyroidism!” Su Yun was excited, struggling to lower his voice.

After saying that, he regretted it.

That should not have been the case... During this time, he pretended to stand in front of the film reader calmly and told everyone that it was the hyperparathyroidism that caused the abnormal bone density. Would exclaiming it not make him stand out as standoffish?

Could it be that he had been suppressed by Zheng Ren until he had become unnoticed, so he had found an opportunity to make himself known, unable to control himself from doing so?

This was a bad habit to develop.

Su Yun was a little depressed after that.

Even if he wanted to show off, he could not. After all, it was Zheng Ren who had used a pen to point at it, allowing him to draw his conclusion.

Everything about the film was weird. When it was taken out, what came into view was a bunch of white dots. It definitely looked like a malignant tumor. Who would have thought that it was a rare disease?

While Su Yun was self-examining, Zheng Ren smiled and said, “I was also thinking that the patient is not suffering from a bone tumor. Just like what Su Yun said, it’s hyperparathyroidism.”

When the patient’s family heard Zheng Ren’s confirmation, they were also in a daze.

Although he now had a glimmer of hope, he knew that it was probably just a dream.

If this was not Sea City but actually a hospital in the Capital or Concord, perhaps he would believe them.

However, who would believe a doctor in Sea City saying that it was not a bone tumor?

Clearly not him.

“When the parathyroid gland is hyperactive, bone absorption intensifies, causing osteoporosis to occur earlier, faster, and more seriously. The patients for this basically have all different degrees of bone pain symptoms, especially in the waist and legs. One will tire easily, and it’s difficult for those who are on the heavier side to even walk. Your daughter couldn’t even stand,” Zheng Ren said. “Let’s hurry up and treat her. But even if we treat her right away, your child will probably still suffer.”

The patient’s father was in a daze then.

“In another month or two, the patient will experience a reduction in height and severe pain all over her body. However, it’ll be better if she has the corresponding treatment. However, whether she can stand up and walk in the future depends on her willpower and how well the treatment works for her,” Zheng Ren said.

The more he told him, the more it seemed to be true. The patient’s father was just inches away from fully believing him.

In the office, there was silence.

Chang Yue and the rest could not understand even if they tried. It was as if they were ducks listening to thunder.

Su Yun was pondering things in his head. Had he been too ‘oppressed’ by Zheng Ren lately? His state of mind was a little out of balance.

Zheng Ren thought about the next treatment plan and was comparing it with various articles he had already memorized.

As for the patient’s family... They did not believe it was real, but they did not dare to say anything, afraid to awaken for this beautiful dream. If he said it, then they would be forced to face reality.

“Boss, I want to give you a compliment but I can’t find the right words.” Professor Rudolph Wagner suddenly broke the silence.

Zheng Ren glanced at the professor.

“I remember similar cases. It’s indeed an abnormal bone density caused by hyperparathyroidism. It seems to be an imaging manifestation of a malignant tumor. We can only use a rich...” The professor racked his brain for the words to praise Zheng Ren but was interrupted by him.

“Su Yun, go to the operating room and push down the ultrasound machine during the operation,” Zheng Ren said. “It should be obvious once we do the ultrasound.”

Indeed, a thyroid ultrasound was enough.

However, who would give a thyroid ultrasound to a patient with advanced bone cancer?

Su Yun did not say anything and left in silence. The black hair resting on his forehead was slightly messy.

“Chief Zheng, you aren’t... You aren’t doing this just to console me, right?” the patient’s father finally mustered up his courage and asked.

He was afraid that this ray of hope would immediately disappear immediately. He did not even want to ask Zheng Ren. Even if it was a lie, it was still good while it lasted.

Zheng Ren smiled and said, “There’s no reason for me to lie to you. It’s the truth.”

This was the best news the patient’s father had heard in recent times.

He wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve and thanked him profusely.

“It’s still not that simple,” Zheng Ren said seriously. “Although it’s not a malignant tumor or well... The probability is not high but if my judgment is correct, your daughter will suffer a lot in the next few months. Her whole body will be in pain as it shrinks, and her bones will be deformed.”

This was the second time Zheng Ren had said this. The patient’s father listened carefully and was stunned.

If Zheng Ren’s words were true, her body would shrink right in front of him... It would be like a scene from hell.
