When the Doctor Uses A Hack

The entire audience fell silent!

Everyone lifted their heads to look at Chen Cang.

Seeing this, Chen Cang suddenly chuckled: "Why can I announce the Elephant Nose Stent technology?"

"Because even if you learn it, you won't be able to use it!"

Yu Yi suddenly felt that Chen Cang was really asking for a beating today!

Xiao Runfang and Cao Yu were genuinely baffled.

Chen Cang usually appeared to be very composed, so why was he acting like this today?

However, they understood that Chen Cang wasn't here to stir up trouble.

If you don't understand, just keep watching!

To be honest, the CEOs of the various corporate groups attending this conference weren't here to examine Johnson & Johnson's devices; they were here to scout items like those Chen Cang had developed independently.

Why?

Because what Johnson & Johnson develops isn't for sale—it has no practical purpose for them.

What they are really looking for are investment opportunities.

Chen Cang is the most talked-about figure, the one with the greatest investment potential. Many people are eager to have a good conversation with him!

In fact, just moments ago, after chatting with Meng Wanrong, Chen Cang realized that what he was introducing wasn't just a patent—it was himself!

Rather than selling the patent for a high price, wouldn't it be better to raise his own value?

Thus, he combined yesterday's prepared slides with today's improvised ideas.

Chen Cang suddenly spoke: "Why do I say that learning about the Elephant Nose Stent is futile?"

"The answer is simple: because you don't understand aortic dissection at all. The basis of the Elephant Nose Stent isn't traditional classification!"

"You're still using Debakey classification? Or Stanford classification? Let me tell you—those are no longer sufficient to guide us in surgery."

"No matter how advanced technology becomes, if software can't keep pace with hardware, then this is the real crisis in our medical field!"

"However, when it comes to aortic dissection surgery, the issue isn't a lack of technological innovation. Even with the current technology, we can improve our understanding of aortic dissections to choose new surgical methods—or to design and select new devices!"

"And thus, the Elephant Nose Stent came into being!"

Chen Cang's words instantly captured everyone's attention!

It's worth noting that over seventy-five percent of today's reviewers were medical professionals.

They can't change technology, but they can change themselves!

Chen Cang's words brought a sense of enlightenment to them.

It also gave them a sense of achievement!

The development of modern medicine has already led to a mismatch between hardware and software.

For years, the rapid advancement of technology has indeed fueled progress in modern medicine, but it has also made many doctors increasingly dependent on technological advancements.

However, Chen Cang's message was clear: technology exists to serve clinical practice.

Chen Cang continued: "If we doctors lose our ability to think and improve, and instead rely solely on technological advancements, I can guarantee that future doctors will be replaced by robots—because you will have lost the ability to innovate, and your physical capacity and precision will never match those of machines!"

With that statement, everyone in the audience was suddenly shaken to their core!

It was as if a towering wave had been stirred deep in their souls!

Shock!

Anxiety!

Fear!

Everyone felt their breathing grow rapid.

They felt uneasy about the future!

Because what Chen Cang said made perfect sense.

Dependency on technology comes at the cost of losing oneself.

Technology should always serve us.

Just as Chen Cang mentioned, if a doctor's "software" can't keep up with technological "hardware," such a doctor will undoubtedly be replaced by machines!

The essence of humanity lies in thinking and innovation!

Progress comes through constant negation and renewal.

But if doctors stop studying medicine, lose their spirit of innovation, fail to develop their understanding of the human body and diseases, and rely entirely on modern technology—blaming surgical failures and disease mismanagement solely on technological limitations—

Then!

If it's not you being replaced, then who?

The nation and society are never short of mass-produced individuals—they are short of people who think and make progress.

This statement from Chen Cang brought the audience to a round of applause!

Of course, it also sparked discontent among some.

This is a conflict of ideologies!

It's also a long-term battle.

That said, the presence of such conflicts is meaningful—they exist to promote mutual growth and progress.

No one expected Chen Cang to deliver such remarks at a medical technology expo.

It had a hint of sabotaging the event!

But remember, the reviewing experts are still doctors.

Medical devices are ultimately clinical tools.

So, the evaluation of medical devices always falls to doctors.

And Chen Cang's words left all the doctors present deeply moved.

Because Chen Cang had articulated their sense of purpose!

At this point, Chen Cang continued:

"The creation of the Elephant Nose Stent convinced me we can make changes even in the face of limited technology."

"And these changes can significantly alter our clinical practices, improve efficiency, and reduce mortality rates..."

"I've created a model for the Elephant Nose Stent, but I must emphasize—it's not a standalone product; it's a suite of products. Its inventor could be me—or it could be any of you!"

"The prerequisite, however, is that you must have a thorough understanding of aortic dissections! Fully understand the disease, the human body, the surgical procedures, and the principles of treatment!"

As he spoke, Chen Cang flashed a mischievous smile.

By now, seven minutes had already passed.

He had successfully engaged everyone.

He decided to unleash his trump card!

This trump card was originally planned for release at the AATS 2020 conference two weeks later.

But now he had found an even better opportunity!

Three minutes—that was enough!

With this thought, Chen Cang directly opened his PowerPoint presentation. As soon as the visuals appeared on screen, the entire front row of evaluators froze!

Upon seeing the images, everyone instinctively felt their hearts tighten, and goosebumps spread all over their bodies!

Excitement?

Thrill?

Or perhaps an internal sense of delight?

Exactly!

The aorta spans the entire chest and abdomen, involving multiple systems.

Any doctor would have some understanding of this condition.

But traditional dissection classification methods, whether Debakey or Stanford, merely categorize—they offer little help for actual surgical procedures.

Yet, when everyone saw Chen Cang's diagram, they could glimpse a different kind of future!

Chen Cang chuckled: "This is my first classification. The surgical method is: Type I Chen Elephant Nose Stent Surgery!"

He spent three minutes explaining this classification.

As the time ticked down, Chen Cang continued: "Actually, the Chen Aortic Classification and its standard include four types!"

With that, Chen Cang elegantly departed!

Watching Chen Cang leave just like that, everyone froze!

It was as though a lump had formed in their throats!

They wanted nothing more than to beat this cliffhanger-loving rogue to a pulp!

PS: To be continued. I estimate there will be two more chapters tonight!
