Masterful Miracle Doctor

Chapter 994 - 958: Inducer

The next morning, Lin Jie, who hadn't rested well the previous night, arrived at Elenna's hospital room as promised.Seeing Elenna's tired face, Lin Jie understood and apologized, "Elenna, I'm sorry. It's my fault that you couldn't rest well."

"This is a minor issue, Dr. Lin. Quickly tell me about your discovery."

Elenna noticed the faint bloodshot appearance in Lin Jie's eyes and worriedly asked, "Dr. Lin, what you have to tell me should be good news, right?"

Lin Jie smiled soothingly and said, "After organizing my thoughts last night, from my detailed speculations, it is not just good news—it's tremendous good news."

"My findings on your tumor somewhat prove the correctness of this speculation."

Unable to contain his excitement, he raised his voice slightly, saying, "If this speculation is widely tested and proven feasible and effective..."

"It will definitely allow tumor patients, especially those with malignant tumors, to gain a longer survival period."

He detailed, "Elenna, through last night's MRI images, I found that your spinal canal tumor underwent changes under the dual influence of radiological inhibitors and traditional Chinese medicine supplements, favoring beneficial changes."

At that moment, Lin Jie carefully explained his speculation and ideas again.

He told Elenna that tumors are alive, and their instinctive choice is to favor beneficial outcomes and avoid harm.

In such cases, specific substances can be used to entice or repel them, aiming to guide and control tumor growth.

After listening to Lin Jie's explanation, Elenna took several quick breaths and asked in a trembling voice, "Dr. Lin, can I understand it this way..."

"After my tumor surgery, can you use this method to make the tumor tissue in various parts of the spinal canal, which cannot be completely removed surgically, come out on their own and ultimately remove them entirely through this inducement and repulsion method?"

Lin Jie nodded and said, "Your thinking is correct."

"However, completely removing the tumor is somewhat idealistic and unrealistic."

"But, there is a great possibility that through this method, we can control the growth, size, and harm of the remaining tumor tissue to the body, allowing you to achieve better quality of life and longer... survival time."

With a hopeful expression, he said, "I also hope to use this method to potentially induce tumor shrinkage and repositioning to lower surgical difficulty and improve surgical success rates for some tumors with particularly high surgical challenges."

Just then, Lin Jie suddenly noticed Elenna's face turning flushed and her eyes shining.

Lin Jie grasped her wrist and found her pulse was rapid and urgent, quickly advising, "Elenna, Elenna, please calm down, calm down."

"Come, follow my movements..."

While making gestures, he said, "Inhale... exhale... inhale... exhale..."

Once Elenna's heartbeat slowed and her breathing stabilized, Lin Jie began to throw cold water, "Elenna, don't be overly excited; don't be overly optimistic..."

"I must tell you, this is merely an idealistic speculation."

"I still need to conduct some experiments to verify this possibility."

"Even if this speculation proves feasible, to put it into practice and achieve good results, there are so many practical issues to resolve, one by one."

"For instance, making tumor tissue sensitive to inducers, which includes both enticing and repelling it."

"To repel it, the first thought is radioactive materials, but these substances have serious negative impacts on healthy human cells, and long-term use can severely damage the body."

"It's relatively easier to entice it with inducers, such as the traditional Chinese medicine supplement you've had."

"However, there are issues with quantity and quality, and also the direction of inducement. If the tumor begins growing wildly in the wrong direction, it would backfire."

"Another significant factor is time."

"Even if the tumor is sensitive to the inducement and repulsion inducers, the change induced would be very slight. It could take weeks, or even months, to see the changes we hope for."

"This is obviously impractical for some tumors with a rapid deterioration rate..."

"Dr. Lin..."

Elenna suddenly interrupted Lin Jie, saying, "I received injections of radiological inhibitors and drank the traditional medicine, and merely two days later, you discovered some abnormalities."

"Does this mean my tumor in the spinal canal is extremely sensitive to your proposed method?"

Lin Jie nodded, saying, "You could say that."

"Then, am I the best, most ideal candidate for this experimental therapy?"

Lin Jie nodded again, saying, "You could say that too."

Elenna took a deep breath and said, "Dr. Lin, I want to be your first experimental patient."

"I want to live."

She placed a hand on her lower abdomen, saying, "I want to hear my child call me mom, and I want to send him to school, attend his elementary graduation ceremony, middle school graduation ceremony, university graduation ceremony..."

Seeing Elenna's eyes full of longing, Lin Jie nodded heavily and said, "Elenna, although I cannot guarantee anything for you, I will do my utmost..."

Returning to his office, Lin Jie instructed Jian Jia not to disturb him lightly, and turned on his computer to start writing the project application report.

Ever since this idea popped up last night, Lin Jie has been in a state of excitement and fervor.

Tumors, especially malignant ones, commonly known as cancer, can be described as the number one killer of modern human life.

To date, medical experts worldwide have not found a very effective treatment method.

Lin Jie's conception also cannot completely cure malignant tumors.

However, after verifying its feasibility and finding the best control method through extensive experimental treatments, he is confident that this method can extend the lifespan of some malignant tumor patients by several years, or even more than ten years.

More than ten additional years.

This can be said to be a very significant progress in the treatment of malignant tumors.

Lin Jie is writing this project application report to submit to the Ministry of Health to apply for research funding support.

This research is obviously a long-term project.

It requires experimental treatment on hundreds of tumor patients, and the financial investment in this research is not a small amount...

While Lin Jie was typing on the keyboard and writing the project application, the Zhou Family in the Binhai East Suburb also held a family meeting.

Zhou Ziyan faced his father and several uncles and brothers, recounting in detail the discussion he had with Lin Jie last night.

"In Expert Lin's conception, extracting the effective components from our tonic, which can be absorbed through injection as an inducer to control tumor growth, is a very important step."

"Furthermore, Expert Lin says that if we can develop an inducer that suppresses tumor growth without obvious side effects, it would be even better."

Hongzhi Zhou, Zhou Ziyan's eldest brother, pondered for a moment and asked, "Ziyan, I know you have conducted research in extracting Chinese medicine components for injection absorption."

"How is your research progressing in this area?"

Zhou Ziyan responded truthfully, "There are still significant issues in this area."

"In ongoing related human trials, although no major or fatal problems have arisen among the injected population, allergic and rejection reactions such as itching and swelling often occur."

"However, I am confident that with sufficient funding support, a breakthrough can be achieved in this area soon."

Mr. Zhou took a sip of the warm water in front of him and said softly, "Everyone, my view is to give strong support to Expert Lin's research project."

"By strong support, I mean not only by contributing manpower and effort but also by sponsoring with research funding."

At this moment, an old man with a gray beard stroked his beard and said slowly, "This research project is being led by Dr. Lin."

"Ziyan's work on this so-called inducer is at most just part of it."

"I reckon once this research succeeds, fame, benefits, and profit will mostly go to Dr. Lin, and the benefits we gain could be minimal."

"Currently, our operation of Jian'an Hall is stable, we lack neither reputation nor money, so I don't think we need to spend resources to help others make the bridal dress!"

"Isn't that right, everybody?"

His words immediately received agreement from several people.

Mr. Zhou's face darkened, and he said, "There is only one Expert Lin in China, but there are many others skilled in Chinese medicine tonics besides our Zhou Family."

"We need Expert Lin, but Expert Lin might not necessarily need us."

"Do we really need Expert Lin? We were doing just fine before he came along!"

The gray-bearded old man laughed softly, "Let this resplendent Expert Lin go find someone else then."

"This research project is not led by us, and the benefits are scarce. Why should our prestigious Zhou Family care?"

Zhou Ziyan became somewhat anxious and exclaimed, "Uncle, it's not such meager benefits..."

"Ziyan!"

Mr. Zhou interrupted him and stood up, saying, "I just intended to inform everyone as usual. If no one is interested, then my branch will participate independently."

"If there's nothing else, let's end the meeting."

As soon as he said this, the gray-bearded old man was the first to stand up and left with a few others.

Mr. Zhou watched their backs, sighed lightly, and lamented, "As the tree grows, branches spread, as the family grows, they split. Some things cannot be suppressed."

He looked at Zhou Ziyan and several others, and said quietly, "Can't they see the enormous benefit this matter contains?"

"They oppose just for the sake of opposition!"

Mr. Zhou said with some regret, "Once Expert Lin's research project succeeds, our traditional Chinese medicine tonics will be transformed and gain genuine worldwide recognition in another form."

"This would be a great honor for our traditional Chinese medicine."

Zhou Ziyan reminded, "Father, it's not only an honor. This inducer could potentially become a large-scale business..."
