Xie Wanying’s words aid to clarify a point: even with dual-source CT and the 64-slice spiral CT developed in the coming years, which add nurous detectors (equivalent to multiple caras), they cannot make the CT imaging speed exceed the physical limit.
This is because the CT machine rotates 180 degrees to collect data and reconstruct images, with the shutter speed determined by the rotational speed. Angiography machines, like X-ray machines, are fixed and collect data by pressing the shutter to form images, giving them a significant advantage in shutter speed.
Angiography machines have their advantages, but CT machines have their advantages too. For car accident patients, excluding heart problems is primarily done with CT rather than angiography.
The reason is simple: heart injuries caused by car accidents are generally not coronary artery issues; there is a possibility of heart rupture.
CT can perform a very detailed scan of certain parts of the patient’s body in a short ti, which is advantageous for checking heart anatomical structure problems. This is not an advantage of angiography machines, as the images taken by angiography machines, like X-rays, tend to overlap.
To sum it up, for car accident patients like her cousin, CT scanning of the coronary arteries is unlikely to directly find coronary issues, even doing a CTA would be a crude examination. However, checking whether the heart structure is damaged is one of the important tasks of the CT room. Clear this distinction to know what CT can do for her cousin. Whether the CT room at the Provincial People’s Hospital checked her cousin thoroughly might need a question mark.
The dical records during hospitalization at the Provincial People’s Hospital are archived in the hospital’s dical records room, and no one can take them away. To view or copy them, one must wait for the doctor to organize the dical records and archive them in the records room, then family mbers can apply by presenting the patient’s ID.
Despite this, industry experts such as Zhang Huayao, Cao Yong, and Shim Youhuan, based on just a few words in the previous hospital discharge summary, can almost pinpoint where the main problems lie.
Bosses are experts and will never be easily fooled.
Now also in the CT room, Doctor Xu looked at Doctor Li as he relayed the results of two CT scans of the patient from the Provincial People’s Hospital, concluding, "The report was probably altered."
"Huh?" Doctor Zhao raised his head, questioning his ntor.
Xie Wanying’s heart skipped a beat.
The first CT scan report for Xiao Shugang by the Provincial People’s Hospital stated that there was no abnormality in the heart. The surgeons at the Provincial People’s Hospital certainly wouldn’t allow the CT room to rewrite the report. Otherwise, it would an that their surgeons ignored the CT report and didn’t perform heart-related surgery during the operation. Clearly, there was an issue with the patient’s heart before surgery, and the surgical departnt wouldn’t bear this bla.
The second CT scan report stated there was a blood clot in the right atrium.
"Do you think there’s a blood clot in his right atrium?" Doctor Xu asked Doctor Zhao and Student Xie, encouraging a detailed discussion between them to enhance accuracy in patient assessnt.
Doctor Zhao scratched his head, grabbed the patient’s exam application report, and read it again, saying, "This examination result is quite ambiguous about the blood clot, not specifying clearly the size, making people suspect whether they couldn’t see the clot clearly?"
You might as well directly say they possibly fabricated it.
Xie Wanying read the thoughts of Doctor Xu and Doctor Zhao, acknowledging it’s indeed a possibility and quite a significant one. As influential doctors in their field, Doctor Xu and Doctor Zhao could spot inconsistencies in their peers’ reports with a discerning eye, easily identifying issues.
