"Imagine that such a diagnostic booth is small but well-equipped. It can be installed in streets, alleys, or even in residential areas." Wei Kang said with eloquence, his eyes shining.
"Of course, it may be more convenient to put it in a pharmacy, because after the diagnosis results are obtained, you can get medicines for relatively simple diseases at the pharmacy. Even if it is placed in a community, ordinary people can go to the nearby pharmacy with the test report and diagnosis results. Buy medicine."
"The main focus is convenience and speed. The results can be obtained in a few minutes, so that everyone can understand their physical condition at any time."
Lu Tingfeng asked subconsciously: "Now that the test report is out, who will make the diagnosis?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he knew it was wrong and wanted to slap himself in the face because the question was so stupid.
Sure enough, Wei Kang burst out laughing: "Of course it's our diagnostic AI, Xiaomei."
"With Xiaomei's ability in diagnosis, she can make a diagnosis based on conventional test results without any difficulty."
"Even if it is a B-ultrasound, as long as under Xiaomei's guidance, users can quickly get started and perform self-examination."
"And now that the Internet is so developed, there is a solid foundation for the development of online medical care. For some complex examinations, doctors can be connected for real-time remote diagnosis."
"Of course, we have to prepare all the equipment required for remote diagnosis and gather them together."
"Such a diagnostic kiosk will not be able to perform anything other than surgery, MRI, and CT, but it will be able to perform other routine examinations."
"We can check everything from color ultrasound, urine routine, blood routine, biochemistry, liver function, kidney function, blood lipids and blood sugar, blood pressure and ECG, genetic screening, early cancer detection, height and weight. It is simply an all-round physical examination center."
"This is what I mean, a combination of software and hardware. The hardware is a variety of accurate and portable testing instruments that can quickly provide test results. The software is a diagnostic AI like Xiaomei, which can make accurate diagnoses based on the test results and provide Treatment programs."
"If the user needs further treatment, they can even immediately connect to the doctor for remote control, complete a more detailed and comprehensive examination, and then issue a prescription and purchase it directly at the nearby pharmacy. This one-stop service for basic medical care is ideal for non-major When it comes to illness, the experience shouldn’t be too perfect.”
"Think about it, in areas where medical resources are lacking, such as in rural areas or towns, there is such a diagnostic kiosk. It will be very convenient for middle-aged and elderly people to see a doctor. Just walk in and under the guidance of Xiaomei, you can do a full-body examination. , any disease can be detected early, it is not troublesome at all, and I am no longer afraid that they will hide the disease and avoid treatment. "
"Even for busy urbanites, it is a very convenient thing. Migrant workers all have some minor problems. They usually are reluctant to take time off to see a doctor. They often have to put off going to the hospital until they feel very uncomfortable and can't bear it. Could it be that they Don’t you want to know your physical condition? Don’t you want to get checked immediately when you have a stomachache?”
[In view of the general environment,
"Of course not, they just find it troublesome or don't have time. They often come back from get off work at seven or eight o'clock, or even ninety o'clock, and then fall asleep after eating. Even if they have a fever, headache, and stomachache, they just want to go to the drugstore in the community to buy something. A medicine."
"But now with the diagnostic booth, everything is different. As long as they feel any discomfort, they can immediately get checked downstairs to understand their physical condition, know where the problem is, what the specific disease is, and whether they need immediate attention. If you go to the hospital, you can still take medicine and be cured in a few days, which saves a lot of time and won't turn a minor illness into a serious one."
"How about it? Thinking about it this way, are we doing something very important that can change the world for the better?"
As Lu Tingfeng listened, his mouth opened wider and wider, and he was stunned with shock.
At this moment, he really admired his boss's imagination.
Wei Kang only described the future in his imagination, but it opened the door to a new world for him.
In the past, he just worked diligently. Even if he made some strategic plans, it was just
Purely from a business perspective.
I never thought that what I did would be of such great significance and could reach such a height of changing the world.
Not just changing the world, but shaping a new world.
His breathing quickened at the thought.
If possible, who wouldn’t want to be a person who changes the world?
"Mr. Wei, this is really a genius idea of yours. If it can be realized, it will definitely be an achievement that benefits all mankind."
Lu Tingfeng sincerely praised: "I am lucky to be able to participate in such a great cause."
"Even if I'm just a screw, under your command, I'm still a meaningful screw."
Wei Kang chuckled: "Don't be so modest. You are also a senior executive of Sanqing. It is very important to me. No matter how good my idea is, you still need to implement it."
Lu Tingfeng nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "I will work hard without complaining. I will go wherever you tell me, Mr. Wei, and devote myself wholeheartedly to the great cause that benefits all mankind."
Wei Kang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Later, you call the relevant technical personnel. We will hold a brainstorming meeting to list all the conventional testing equipment needed for the diagnostic kiosk, and then officially start the project for development."
Lu Tingfeng nodded heavily and agreed: "No problem, Mr. Wei, I'll go right away."
A few days later, in a conference room, more than a dozen engineers were sitting upright, all looking excited and whispering to each other.
These are the technical backbone of the equipment department, including mechanics, electricity, hardware, optics, etc.
After they heard Wei Kang's idea, they were all impressed by it. At the same time, their imaginations were stimulated, and they had to speak freely as soon as the meeting started.
Wei Kang walked into the conference room on time, nodded, and showed a kind smile on his face.
"Okay, you all should know the purpose of this meeting. It's mainly a brainstorming session on the diagnostic kiosk. You can share your ideas and discuss the feasibility together."
Wang Dali was the first to speak and said: "Mr. Wei, I think routine testing alone is not enough. MRI equipment can be added."
He started talking about a high-precision product like nuclear magnetic imaging. If it were from other companies, people would probably laugh at it, because nuclear magnetic imaging technology is not only a huge investment, but also very difficult. Without years of hard work in this field, it is impossible to do it at all. No, it doesn’t mean it can be developed through research and development.
But in Sanqing, when Wang Dali said that he wanted to make an MRI equipment, no one's expressions changed at all, as if he was talking about making a stethoscope.
Not only that, some people have even begun to seriously think about the feasibility.
When Wei Kang heard this suggestion, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. Before he could speak, someone immediately rejected the proposal.
"The MRI equipment is too big. You might as well add a DR to it, which is more technically feasible."
"Yes, this equipment is too expensive. The market price can easily reach tens of millions. Are you out of your mind? Do you want to put this thing in the community?"
"How will you know if it works if you don't try?" Wang Dali retorted, squeezing his neck.
"MRI is the king in the field of medical imaging. In addition to being larger and more expensive, it has huge advantages in diagnosing diseases. It can quickly obtain high-precision three-dimensional images of the internal structures of the human body without causing harm to the body. It can be said that It’s a killer weapon in clinical testing.”
"Without its participation, any diagnostic system will be eclipsed, and it will not be able to achieve a complete and comprehensive diagnosis."
"We need to take a long-term view. Isn't this a brainstorming session for the future? Why not set a goal first and then slowly realize its miniaturization, don't you think?"
"This..." The engineers present looked at each other and couldn't find a reason to refute.
"Ahem," Wei Kang couldn't help but interjected: "Well, let me explain. I expect this diagnostic kiosk to be implemented within the next year, so it's best to have something that can be used.
As a highly feasible solution, MRI is currently not feasible, and it will not be too late to add it when it is miniaturized in the future. "
When he said this, everyone immediately understood.
Wang Dali said with regret: "It's a pity. It seems we have to wait a few more years. How about we add DR? At least we can take a simple film for the user, and it will be easier for Xiaomei to make a diagnosis." .”
Someone echoed: "This is feasible, but after all, it is an X-ray, and the frequency of users' filming must be limited. I'm afraid some people will go and take pictures every day for fun."
Wei Kang spoke again and made the final decision: "For safety reasons, equipment with ionizing radiation cannot be added. If something happens, we cannot bear the responsibility."
Wang Dali was immediately dumbfounded: "No way, there are so many restrictions?"
Wei Kang spread his hands: "For medical imaging, color Doppler ultrasound is enough. You have to leave some business for the hospital, do you have to do all the work?"
Everyone present looked thoughtful: "It makes sense."
"Let's take a look at what equipment is needed first." Lu Tingfeng said, stretching out his hands with all ten fingers raised. When he said the name of a product, he bent one finger.
"Full-automatic biochemical analyzers, blood analyzers, and urine analyzers are used for biochemistry, urine tests, and blood tests. Then there are color ultrasound, electrocardiogram, blood pressure and blood sugar measurements. In addition, defibrillators are also required. First aid equipment must also be available.”
At this point, he stopped, shook his two upright fingers, and said, "There are two more indicators."
Wang Dali added: "I suggest adding a CRP analyzer. This kind of test is relatively cheap, only a few dozen yuan at most, and the results come out very quickly. When someone goes to see a respiratory disease, the doctor will check the CRP to see if there is any No infection."
CRP is the abbreviation of C-reactive protein. It is an acute phase reaction protein that can react with pneumococcal C polysaccharide to form a complex. Within a few hours after the onset of various inflammations, tissue damage and other diseases, its value will increase. sharply increased.
"So we'd better have one, so that it will be more accurate to detect bacterial infection and inflammation."
Lu Tingfeng bent another finger and said, "There is one more."
At this time, another engineer pushed up his glasses and said timidly: "I suggest that tumor marker testing be added."
"Most of these tumor markers are glycoproteins, lipoproteins, enzymes, amino acids and other components. They exist not only in the blood of tumor patients, but also in the blood of normal people. However, the content in the blood of the former is significantly increased, thus indirectly marking The presence of tumors.”
"We can detect these tumor markers through biochemical methods or multiplex polymerase chain reaction technology, thereby completing the primary screening of early cancer for ordinary people."
"For example, for lung cancer, blood can be drawn to detect tumor markers such as CA125 and CA199. For gastrointestinal tumors, CEA and CA199 can be tested. For breast cancer, CA153 and CA125 can be tested, etc."
"The symptoms of early-stage tumors are not obvious. By the time they are discovered on CT or color ultrasound, they have often reached the mid-to-late stage. If we can detect them at the early stage through technical means, we can treat them early and reduce the burden on patients."
"Well said, add this in." Wei Kang cheered loudly.
After receiving Wei Kang's approval, the other engineers suddenly became energetic and put forward their own ideas.
“Mr.
"You can also do a paternity test, which is definitely very popular."
"I saw a paper on the internal forum last time, saying that the p-tau217 protein content in Alzheimer's patients is 7 times higher than other people. A tau protein blood test can be used to detect the elderly. The accuracy of diagnosing dementia patients is as high as 98%. I think we can add this to the list and conduct blood tests on some elderly people over 60 years old to detect them in advance.
treat. "
"A great idea. Although this is a new testing method, it is indeed feasible."
"There are also common infectious disease test items, such as hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibodies, and syphilis antibodies, which can all be detected through blood tests."
"In that case, can some tests for common bacteria and viruses also be available? As long as you have a microscope, you can conduct smear microscopy on the patient's secretions and blood, and you can detect tuberculosis, parasites and the like. "
"No, can ordinary people do smears?"
"Learn, this is very simple, anyone who has taken biology class in middle school should know it."
"Okay, it's easy to smear a smear, but microscopic examination is not simple. It's very technical, and requires the subjective judgment of the examiner, otherwise it's easy to make a misjudgment."
"It's not as complicated as you think. Generally speaking, as long as the instrument gives abnormal parameters, histograms or scatter plots, you can make the most basic judgment based on the instrument's operating prompt signals or explanatory prompts. It is really complicated. In this case, the patient can be advised to go to the hospital for review.”
"It makes sense. Anyway, once things get complicated, you need to go to the hospital for review. This is very scientific and reasonable."
"Holy crap, to realize all your ideas, how powerful does this blood analyzer have to be? There are so many things to check, and it requires a certain degree of accuracy. Can it be checked?"
"A blood analyzer is considered a Class II medical device. Technically speaking, it is not difficult. However, it is very difficult to make it with accurate inspection accuracy. However, we can focus on some special parameters and make relevant The reagent should still be feasible.”
"Hearing what you said, I'm already eager to try it out and want to get involved in this new project right away."
Wei Kang sat quietly aside, listening to everyone talking freely, and occasionally quarreling fiercely, and couldn't help but smile.
The ideas put forward by these technicians were very new to him and very feasible. He has recorded them all one by one.
If these ideas can be realized, then the diagnostic kiosk will have all the functions it should have, and his goal will be achieved.
Of course, the functions may not be that powerful at the beginning, so you can only start with the simplest and most conventional ones.
But this is a growing project. As long as it continues to develop, sooner or later it will turn into a comprehensive diagnostic room and become the most powerful diagnostic system in the history of the medical world.
With it, doctors will be even more powerful. No matter where the patient is, they can make a comprehensive diagnosis and provide corresponding treatment plans.
For ordinary people, many diseases can be more easily detected in advance and treated at a very low cost, which undoubtedly greatly enhances people's health index.
For the country, it is undoubtedly a major benefit and is in line with the major medical policy of early diagnosis and early treatment.
At present, 90% of domestic medical resources are concentrated on the treatment of the middle and late stages of the disease. The proportion of middle and late stage patients is high, the treatment time is long, difficult, and consumes a lot of resources. This is an important factor that makes medical treatment expensive and difficult.
The cost of early treatment of the disease is relatively low and can be afforded by most people. As long as regular comprehensive health examinations are carried out, the occurrence of middle- and late-stage patients can be reduced, treatment costs can be reduced, and the financial burden on the patient's family can be greatly reduced.
At the same time, it can also significantly reduce the expenditure on medical insurance funds, which is a great thing for both the people and the medical insurance department.
This is also the fundamental way to completely solve the difficulty and expense of medical treatment.
Sanqing develops its own advantages and perfectly combines AI and in vitro testing equipment to create a comprehensive diagnostic system, which will be a major help in promoting this solution.
When it is completely popularized, it will surely solve the century-old problem of difficulty and high cost of medical treatment.
After figuring this out, Wei Kang immediately made up his mind.
"You all have good ideas. This meeting was a great success. I officially declare it."
"The all-round diagnostic kiosk project was officially launched."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire conference room was completely flooded with thunderous applause.
without.
