Lu Tingfeng never expected that the portable color ultrasound instrument would be so popular among company employees even before it went on sale.
In the beginning, they were employees of the equipment department. They transformed into curious babies one by one, exploring the inner beauty of the human body in the name of collecting clinical data.
Later, pregnant women in the company also discovered the beauty of portable color ultrasound machines.
In an instant, it was like poking a hornet's nest.
Under the leadership of Zhou Juan, a group of pregnant women like to come here to see their babies during their breaks every day.
Talking and interacting with the babies allowed the babies to feel the overflowing maternal love in advance. They even took photos to take home to show to their families.
Suddenly, the testing room of the equipment department became the most popular place in the company.
Fortunately, there weren't many pregnant female employees, so it wasn't overcrowded.
Lu Tingfeng was caught off guard when faced with this scene, but he couldn't refuse. After all, pregnant women are indeed one of the main users of color ultrasound equipment.
In order to test the data, he could only hold his nose and endure it.
However, he was keenly aware that the portable color Doppler ultrasound machine may be a little sensitive in distinguishing gender.
Although the pregnant women in Sanqing are all high-quality people, the possibility of favoring boys over girls is very small.
But you still have to plan ahead and prepare in advance to nip trouble in the bud as much as possible.
So he only allows mothers who are seven months old to use it, and everyone has to sign a trial agreement to avoid any possible problems.
At the same time, some prototypes were also sent to partner hospitals for trial use.
Kunming City, First People's Hospital.
Dr. Zhao walked into the color ultrasound room early in the morning and heard the excited chatter of his colleagues.
Several doctors in white coats gathered around, chatting happily and foaming at the mouth.
“I really didn’t expect that today’s portable color Doppler ultrasound machines can be so exquisite and beautiful.”
"Don't even look at which company it is from? As you can see from the last portable monitor, Sanqing is a company that has a relatively high pursuit of aesthetics and texture."
"Why are medical electronic products so fancy? They just need to be easy to use."
"But not only does it look good, it's also easy to use. Being able to do this is really awesome."
"That's right, I'm fed up with the ten-kilogram portable color Doppler ultrasound system. Is that called portable? Look at this. This is truly portable."
Dr. Zhao walked over curiously and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? The conversation is so lively."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a device placed on the table. It had a beautiful appearance, with a hint of metal texture, and the lines were as round and graceful as a swan's neck. It made people want to hold it in their hands at first sight.
"Is this the portable color Doppler ultrasound machine you're talking about? It's as beautiful as a work of art."
Dr. Zhao could not help but praise and immediately took it in his hand.
A petite female doctor next to her said with a smile: "This is the new portable color Doppler ultrasound system launched by Sanqing Group. The director just sent it for us to try."
Dr. Zhao said in surprise: "Why only one? Since Sanqing wants us to try it out, he shouldn't be so stingy about giving one away."
Another short-haired female doctor pursed her lips and said: "Sanqing is not that stingy. We sent 8 ultrasound machines for trial use. However, the director said that we have many color ultrasound machines here, so he gave us one. It was interesting and one was placed on the emergency vehicle." , one is given to the intensive care unit, one is given to the emergency department, another is in the operating room, and the remaining three are given to the inpatient department."
Dr. Zhao was a little puzzled when he heard that there seemed to be a hint of resentment in her tone, so he smiled.
"The director has thought carefully. We also have other portable color ultrasound machines here. In the past, people from the ultrasound department would bring the instruments to the wards every day to perform ultrasound examinations on patients with limited mobility. Now, we directly give them a few units and let the inpatient department staff use them. If the doctor uses it himself, wouldn’t it save us trouble?”
The petite female doctor also nodded and said, "That's right. The people in the inpatient department praise us for our generosity."
The short-haired female doctor curled her lips and complained: "Such good things should be given to our ultrasound department. I have no objection to giving them to the emergency room and operating room, but why should they be given to the inpatient department? Even if they are given, they are not needed. Give them all, there are three of them, one should be enough."
Dr. Zhao chuckled and quickly changed the subject: "That's great. Since it is a device from Sanqing Group, it must be easy to use. I can't wait to try it."
He held a portable color ultrasound device in his hand and looked around: "Where is the patient? Why did the patient come so late today? It has been ten minutes."
As soon as she finished speaking, the petite female doctor shouted: "Next one!"
Then a middle-aged woman about forty years old came in, followed by a little girl of seven or eight years old.
Dr. Zhao's face suddenly fell. He thrust the portable color ultrasound device into the hands of the petite female doctor and sat on a chair nearby.
Generally speaking, B-ultrasound examination requires lifting clothes to expose the chest and abdomen, so the examination of female patients will be more sensitive.
Although doctors don't care about this, there's no guarantee that patients don't, so in large hospitals like theirs, where there are many doctors in the color ultrasound room, female doctors will be asked to examine female patients.
But this didn't stop him from watching the patient's color ultrasound images.
The petite female doctor looked at the patient's condition and said in surprise: "Cardiac color ultrasound examination. So do we still need a portable color ultrasound instrument?"
The short-haired female doctor rushed to say: "Of course I have to use it. It is said that this thing can do four-dimensional color ultrasound. It is very powerful and comparable to high-end color ultrasound machines. Didn't the director let us try it out? Of course we have to try out the most high-end functions."
"Okay," the petite female doctor looked at the patient and smiled: "What's his name?"
The little girl called out her name crisply: "Xie Weiwei."
The middle-aged woman spoke eagerly: "Doctor, my daughter has occasionally had chest tightness and asthma in the past few months. As a child, she often stays up late to read, doesn't like to exercise, and sits for a long time. These are all normal. In the past few days, I suddenly had a stomachache and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor asked me to do a cardiac ultrasound."
At this point, she was a little puzzled and couldn't help complaining: "What do you think this stomachache has to do with the heart? Are you mistaken?"
The petite female doctor understood immediately after hearing this, because a color ultrasound is still relatively expensive, especially a color ultrasound that can do heart disease. It is a relatively high-end equipment. A test in a tertiary hospital costs about 300 yuan, so patients will naturally be dissatisfied.
So he explained with a smile: "Many diseases are related to each other. Since the doctor asked for a heart check, he must have made his own judgment. Besides, the child also has some chest tightness and asthma, right, so it is good to have a check-up."
The middle-aged woman stopped talking. Before the child's illness was cured, the family members were humble. But once they found out that the child's illness was truly cured, they immediately changed their attitude. It was obvious that she was ready to see the effect first.
The petite female doctor asked the little girl to lie on the bed, turned on the portable color ultrasound machine, applied heated coupling agent, and gently placed it on the girl's chest.
Dr. Zhao and the short-haired female doctor both came over and looked at the heart images on the tablet together.
"Oh, it's not bad. It's no worse than a desktop color ultrasound. The ventricles, valves, and blood flow are very clear." Dr. Zhao whispered.
"Shh, don't let the patient hear this," the petite female doctor glared at him and carefully examined the little girl's heart. No problem was found for the time being.
"Wait a minute, here, the left ventricle." The short-haired female doctor suddenly pointed at the image that flashed by and said.
The petite female doctor operated, and soon the real-time image of the left ventricle appeared on the screen.
Dr. Zhao also noticed it at this time, pointed to a bright spot swinging back and forth in the ventricle and said: "This doesn't seem to be a heart valve. Let's see what it is."
The petite female doctor pressed the "Freeze" button, first saving the pictures one after another, and then operating them again. The images on the screen instantly turned into color, and the rendered heart tissue layer appeared.
"Wow, this real-skin rendering function is really powerful." Several doctors were a little shocked.
"Look, it's right here. It looks a little white, and it feels like a tumor." The short-haired female doctor lowered her voice and said.
"What?" The petite female doctor was suddenly startled, saved the picture, and then changed it to a real-time image.
"Look at the blood flow. If the blood flow is blocked when passing through this area, it is very likely that there is a tumor." Dr. Zhao's face also became serious.
The three of them looked at it for a long time and finally made a decision.
"It is suspected to be a left ventricular fibroma. It is in the early stage and is still relatively small." The petite female doctor gave a conclusion and printed out a picture of the location where the tumor occurred.
When she heard the word "tumor", her family members were immediately shocked. Her voice suddenly became louder and her expression became panicked: "What kind of tumor?"
The female doctor comforted: "Don't worry, fibroma is a benign tumor and is not an incurable disease. Of course, it has not been officially diagnosed yet, and further examination by a doctor is needed. Because fibroma often calcifies, it is best to do it again Let’s get an X-ray to confirm.”
The middle-aged woman was completely stunned. She never expected that a stomachache could be related to her heart, and it might even be a tumor.
If her daughter hadn't been staring at her with her big innocent eyes, she would have collapsed to the ground.
Soon, she took a deep breath, regained her composure, took the color ultrasound examination results, and left in a hurry with her daughter.
Dr. Zhao exclaimed with bright eyes: "I never expected that this portable color ultrasound can really be comparable to high-end color ultrasound. It is so amazing that such a small fibroid can be clearly displayed."
"Yes, the patient is expected to go through admission procedures soon," the petite female doctor said with anticipation: "The next patient, I hope, is a pregnant woman. I really want to see what the baby looks like under 4D color ultrasound."
The short-haired female doctor has already started shouting: "Next one."
Another patient came in, this time it was really a pregnant woman with a big belly.
The short-haired female doctor's eyes suddenly shone, and she stretched out her hand towards the petite female doctor: "You just had an echocardiogram, this time it's me."
"It's a beautiful idea, let me have fun first." The petite female doctor held the portable color ultrasound instrument tightly in her hand, completely ignored her, and then showed a bright smile to the patient.
"Come here, lie down."
The short-haired female doctor stomped her feet angrily: "Damn it, she actually got ahead of me. If I had known, I wouldn't have let her."
Dr. Zhao also looked helpless: "When will a male patient come, please let me get started."
Next, for the whole morning, the portable color ultrasound machine was occupied by two female doctors. Dr. Zhao never had a turn and could only sit aside and sulk.
After trying it out, the two female doctors did not want to use the desktop color Doppler ultrasound machine again.
The two started an open and covert battle over the right to use the portable color ultrasound instrument.
The other doctors in the department are all men, so they really can't compete with them.
Dr. Zhao watched boredly and greedily.
He suddenly had an idea: "I should go to the inpatient department. There are many patients there and there are extra portable color ultrasound machines. If I remember correctly, there are three of them. There must be extra ones."
Thinking of doing it, he immediately stood up quickly: "You continue to work, I will go to the inpatient department to bring warmth to the patients."
Dr. Zhao rushed towards the inpatient department in a hurry.
He remembered that when he went to perform ultrasound examinations on patients before, he was very popular. He received a lot of praise every time, and this time was definitely no exception.
Thinking of this, he smiled proudly: "I'm such a clever little guy."
"Women, the situation is still too small. You know how to fight back and forth in the color ultrasound room, but you don't know how vast the world outside is."
However, when he arrived at the inpatient department and asked about the portable color ultrasound machine, he was instantly dumbfounded.
"Sanqing's portable color Doppler ultrasound machine?" The nurse looked at him with a half-smile. "You're late. The doctors in the inpatient department are rushing to use it. They almost got into a fight over these color Doppler ultrasound machines."
"Huh?" Dr. Zhao was immediately discouraged: "Which patients are using them? There are three of them, so it's not like they can't tell them apart."
The nurse tilted her head and pointed toward the first floor: "There are 20 pregnant women on the first floor, all waiting in line to use it."
"I almost forgot that there are pregnant women here. One should be enough for them." Dr. Zhao patted his forehead and said in annoyance.
"Dr. Shi and Dr. Li from the oncology department are both powerful, and they snatched one away."
"Cough cough cough!" Dr. Zhao almost choked on his saliva: "Is there another one?"
The nurse covered her mouth and smiled, took out an unusually familiar object from the audience, and waved it in front of him, looking triumphant.
"Needless to say, whoever can defeat our nurses is certainly in our hands."
Dr. Zhao's eyes widened, looking at the portable color ultrasound machine in the nurse's hand, and he couldn't help but swallow.
Seeing his greedy look, the nurse giggled even more cheerfully: "We keep this here, and the doctor can come and get it when he needs it. It's fair to avoid other people occupying it and refusing to take it out."
When Dr. Zhao heard what she said, he knew that it was an unowned thing, and his heart suddenly trembled, and he suddenly snatched it away.
Then, he turned around, ran away, and disappeared through the door.
"You..." The nurse was stunned. It took her a while to react, and she opened her mouth to yell.
"It's not good, someone is coming, someone is robbing something!"
Soon, several doctors and nurses ran over.
"What are you doing? What's going on?"
"Be careful of the impact and don't make any noise in the ward."
However, after hearing the nurse explain the details, the visitor suddenly became furious.
"Damn Ultrasound Department, this portable color ultrasound machine does not belong to them. It belongs to the public property of the hospital. How could it be robbed?"
"That's right, I haven't tried it yet. I was just waiting to use it, and it's gone?"
"Portable color ultrasound is available in other departments. Why would you come to the inpatient department to get it without telling me? It's so bullying."
"We must not let it go, we must take it back."
"It's simply despicable and shameless!"
The nurses in the inpatient department were also very angry, and they all turned red with anger: "That's too much. They actually snatched things from us. You don't take our nurses seriously."
The head nurse stood at the door with her hands on her hips, like a compass, and said with a frosty look on her face: "Go, go find them and ask for it back. Whoever wants it back will get it, we don't care."
Several doctors' eyes suddenly lit up: "It's a deal."
"Brothers, let's go get it back right now."
"It's their fault, and it's our fault if we bring it up to the director."
"Go together, go together."
Several more doctors ran out, and soon seven or eight people gathered and walked toward the ultrasound department.
Doctors and nurses from other departments poked their heads out of the windows with curious expressions on their faces. They looked at this scene and didn't know what was going on.
At the same time, outside the dean's office, someone suddenly ran over panting.
Bang bang bang!
Knocked on the closed door.
"No, there's a fight between the ultrasound department and the inpatient department."
